The recording of my talk from DrupalCon this year is now available!
This is perhaps my most technical talk, meant for developers and tinkerers who would like an easy way to get started with Drupal.
At Freelock, we're starting to use Nix to manage different PHP environments, and be able to incrementally update websites.
Views module has long been the killer feature of Drupal, making it easy for a site builder or skilled administrator to essentially create complex SQL queries through a web interface, without knowing SQL.
Here at Freelock, we are all in for web development. Truly, what could be more important for our clients in today's climate than a properly functioning and safe website?
The corners of Drupal 8 that aren't there are quickly dwindling, but there are still some that need to get worked out. While upgrading our internal issue tracker, we hit a new one -- getting a group context set via a URL alias, and generally keeping posts within a group.
Lots of stuff has been changing in Drupal 8 recently. In 8.3.0, a new experimental "layout discovery" module was added to core, which conflicted with the contrib "layout plugin" module.
On one of our D8 sites, after upgrading to 8.3.0, we had a "too many redirects" loop going on on the dev server. For quite some time, we've had the site path repeated with "?q=".
Panacea, or disaster? Drupal 8 Configuration Management was supposed to solve all our woes when it came to dealing with deploying configuration. In many ways it's a vast improvement, but in some ways it has almost made matters worse.
