Today we are talking about a topic close to my heart: imposter syndrome. I have experienced it both in my Drupal activities and in other pursuits. But as a guy, I get that it tends to affect women much more than men in the tech industry. That’s why I was captivated by this talk from DrupalCon Nara:

Today we are looking at Member Platform, a community initiative to develop a general Drupal-based solution for membership organisations.

As we reach the mid-point of our Advent calendar, we have another guest entry, this one from Phil Alonso, to tell us about a talk he attended at Midcamp. Over to you Phil…

Today we are looking at Drupal Canvas, an exciting new way to build pages and theme sites in Drupal.

Today we hand over to AmyJune Hineline to tell us about the presentation behind today’s door…

EditTogether brings real-time collaborative editing, the familiar experience many people know from Google Docs, directly into Drupal while keeping full control of content in the hands of site owners.

As we enter the second week of our Advent calendar, we welcome Rachel Lawson, who recommended today’s talk from DrupalCamp England:

Rachel says:

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.
