Drupal Camp Asheville 2024 - July 12th-14th
The session will be devided in 4 parts:
Part 1: Getting specifications: an approach to bring a number of very smart people in a room and go away with a plan everyone agrees on.
This spring, our team built a high performing, ultra fast search interface for a client Drupal site using React JS, Apache Solr, and the Drupal Search API module.
This project allowed the client to leverage some of the well-established benefits of decoupling Drupal's content from the presentation layer, while also avoiding many of the challenges that complete decoupling involves.
Open Y is an initiative driven by YMCAs for YMCAs. It is an open source platform built on Drupal 8. It is a philosophy of sharing, collaboration, and innovation. It is a community of YMCAs and digital partners.
For teams familiar with traditional project phases, a common question when considering using an agile methodology is: Where does the creative team and its phases fit into an agile process?
When "you never get a second chance to make a first impression," how do you design iteratively and "fail fast"?
Winning Drupal websites live at the intersection of psychology, technology, and brand- a place that can get very complicated for users.
UNC Asheville recently completed a 2-year project to design, develop, and implement 2 new Drupal themes for our 100+ websites. One theme was externally facing, the other an administrative theme.
The Paragraphs module has been around since 2013 and rapidly gained acclaim for being the bomb diggity. And though Panels, Panopoly, and the In-Place Editor have long been staple ingredients in Kalamuna’s awesome-sauce, our love affair is officially over.
This session will cover several areas on web accessibility. Web Accessibility 101 and the legal aspect for business. This talk is not specific to Drupal, but focuses on best practices that apply to any website.
Some of the accessibility 101 things I will cover are:
Presentation will focus on why to use Backdrop CMS, Backdrop's committment to affordability, the various improvements over Drupal 7, and the ease of moving from D7 to Backdrop. A feature demonstration will follow a short video and slidedeck. There will be a drawing for those present for the new book - "Beginning Backdrop CMS" by Todd Tomlinson
Angular 2 has become more popular as a solid solution for use in front end Development in recent months. In this presentation I will discuss what Angular 2 is, how you can get started quickly, and some use cases for it. This awesome framework will be a great addition to your FrontDev skill set and Drupal projects in general.
