Building a Drupal community isn’t easy, events like DrupalCon and DrupalCamps help hold communities together, so when events like Covid happen, it can be hard to keep things going, and to rebuild afterwards.
An important aspect of building a sustainable community is bringing new people into Drupal organisations, and helping them to embrace the community. Today Jess Vetsuypers and Eline Van Coillie from Dropsolid talk about finding and retaining new talent.
They discuss some interesting approaches in both finding and evaluating potential team members, and then ensuring they integrate well into your organisation.
At this year’s most recent DrupalCon in Nara, Japan, Gábor Hojtsy brought the core of Drupal back into focus.
Welcome to day 4 of the Drupal Advent Calendar, and today we are joined by Mike Anello to tell us about one of his favourite presentations of the year by Dr. Christophe Breidert…
An important aspect of every website project is accessibility, and an important part of that is giving your images meaningful “alt” text to describe their contents.
Today we are getting a bit technical and diving into Autowiring with Luca Lusso.
I really enjoy keynotes at DrupalCon, particularly those given by guests from outside the Drupal community. This year’s European DrupalCon in Vienna was no exception, and I think Vera Herzmann’s talk on Neurodiversity resonated with everyone present.
So first, an apology. I have failed in my original plan. A nasty cold/flu thing sapped my energy, and I wasn’t organised enough to make it work.
The plan was to have initiative leads nominate people who have made an important contribution to their projects, and to feature those “People of Drupal” behind the doors.
Think you to all the people who made great suggestions, and thank you to the people they suggested who responded positively, but we’ve run out of time to make it work.
For the past three years, the Drupal Advent Calendar has spotlighted shiny new modules, clever projects, and all sorts of open-source goodness.
This year we’re hanging up our “new module smell” stockings and doing something different.
It’s time to celebrate the people, the elves, reindeer, and magical snow-folks who keep the Drupal project running behind the scenes.
I hope you enjoyed this year’s Drupal Advent Calendar, and our whistle-stop tour of Starshot tracks. If you missed it, you can catch up here.
I want to touch on a couple of things that I missed during the regular calendar schedule.
