Drupal 8: The Missing Parts

pingevt

Can you not quite get Drupal to do what you want? Is the Admin side of your site a little clunky? Too many paragraph bundles that all do basically the same thing?

This session will go over some tips and tricks and demystify some potentially scary parts of Drupal so you can reach that next level of Drupal:

  • Easily add that bit of customization the “Drupal way” so as to not break everything else
  • Utilize the tools that Drupal already provides, but you may not know they exist. We’ll dig into:
    • Libraries
    • Custom Display Formatters
    • Custom Tokens
    • Services
    • CKEditor Plugins
    • Batch Process
    • And more... 
  • Develop some good habits that you can transfer from project to project. 
  • Make your project slightly better for the next Drupal developer that works on your site.


This session will not necessarily cover code in depth, but let you know about the ideas and concepts so you can dive further into topics that you may need for your upcoming projects. And hopefully some good Q&A time as well.
