DrupalCon’s Got Talent game show, test your skills and win prizes!

Suchi Garg (gargsuchi), Akhil Bhandari (Akhil@salsa)

Fancy yourself as someone with mad website building skillz!?
Think you have the creds to win the game show of the year? Then join the DrupalCon’s Got Talent’ (DGT) game show, the CivicTheme design system edition!

Prerequisite
Beginner Drupal content Management

Outline
We will be running a game show that will test participants’ website building skills and design flair. No coding knowledge is needed! Just some creativity and a can-do attitude to try something new!
The lucky contestants will compete in a feverish 20-minute build sprint to create a single homepage layout using the open source Drupal CivicTheme design system. Sounds easy right?
With a quick design brief from the CivicTheme team, contestants will work on a Drupal site, pre-loaded with the CivicTheme design system, showing off their unique style to beat other players in each creating their homepage masterpiece.
A panel of Drupal celebrity judges will then select a winner based on the homepage that: best meets the brief, is creatively executed, and is user-focused.
So get ready to roll up your virtual design sleeves and prepare for a game show like no other. Did we mention there are great prizes!? Cash gift cards will be up for grabs!
We ran this gameshow format in person at the DrupalSouth Sydney 2024 event. The event specific supporting competition website for this event can be seen here - https://drupalsouth2024-civictheme-gameshow.civictheme.io/

We would envision this DrupalCon Barcelona 2024 show to be the next ‘season’ of the game show with its own site.

Learning Objectives
An understanding of a Drupal theme based design system like CivicTheme and how it can be used to create component based page layouts and content without any coding.
