SOLD OUT - Component based theming with Twig
Each iteration of Drupal introduces new and exciting ways to manage content. However, the display of content is even more important along with the knowledge of how to convert a design to a theme. While we have all read about, watched and even worked with Twig to create new themes in Drupal 8, the way we work with Twig has changed.
Join us as we walk through the theming variations that started with the traditional theme-centric design and has quickly moved into component-based design. Together we will master Component-based theming with Twig as we work to identify patterns, define components, utilize command line tools such as Composer, NPM and Grunt to quickly create a PatternLab managed theme. Learn how to work smarter in developing components that can easily be integrated into project after project without having to recreate yourself.
If you consider yourself a front-end developer then you will be right at home learning all the newest techniques to take your skills to the next level as we master Component-based theming with Twig.
All attendees will receive a digital copy of Chaz' book "Drupal 8 Theming with Twig".
