Architecting government websites: migrating Portland.gov to Drupal 8

Note: This, and other lab sessions, will not be recorded.

With over 350,000 content objects to migrate and more than 250 editors, Portland.gov is a huge undertaking. The vision is to create a community-focused website where services are easy to find, easy to access, and easy to understand. 

Regardless of your experience level, you'll learn new ways to structure Drupal for a large-scale site that must to scale to the demands of a city government. 

In this session, we will cover:

• modeling to turn an organization's data into an engine to deliver services and education
• creating a better search model to help your community of users quickly find what they need
• building capacity in a team new to Drupal through relationships with partner organizations
• teaching a fleet of content editors to build for understanding and accessibility

Along the way, we will touch topics such as dev ops, composer, paragraphs, and more.
