DrupalCon Portland starts today, so it seems a good time to start thinking about the 2024 Advent Calendar!
Advent Calendar? In May?
If there’s one thing I learned last year, it’s start early! We had a few hairy moments last year, and a couple of later nights than I would have liked, so this year I want to get the ball moving early.
For fun, mostly!
But also to promote the great Drupal projects and the people working on them.
This December was the second incarnation of the Drupal Advent Calendar project.
This started on a whim in 2022, and while fun, I knew I didn’t want to write it all myself the second year.
So at DrupalCon Lille, I started asking people to get involved in this year’s calendar, initially focusing on people I know. The response was generally positive, with most people eager to take part.
My aim was to have a different person talk about an aspect of Drupal behind each door, and that was more or less how it worked out.
Today is the last day of our Advent Calendar, and what a trip it’s been. For our final door, we have a real treat, as Baddý Sonja Breidert (baddysonja) joins us to tell us all about the Drupal presence at this year’s Web Summit, including the video of her keynote speech, available for the first time.
For the penultimate door of the Drupal Advent Calendar, we are joined by Mike Herchel (mherchel) to tell the amazing story of bringing Single Directory Components into Drupal Core.
Welcome back to the the Drupal Advent Calendar, and we’re down to the last few doors. For door 22, we are joined by Jordana Fung (jordana), who tells us about Community Working Groups.
It’s day 21, and our stockings are warming over the fireplace. Joe Shindelar (eojthebrave) joins us to open today’s door, and for the PHP developers among us, it will make a nice little stocking filler.
Once again, welcome back to the Drupal Advent Calendar. It’s day 20, and time to open our next door. Today Leslie Glynn (leslieg) joins us to talk about the Event Organizers Working Group (EOWG).
Welcome back to the Drupal Advent calendar for another door opening! Today Nic Laflin (nicxvan) is here to tell us about the ECA Commerce module.
Once again, welcome to Day 18 of the Drupal Advent Calendar. Today we are joined by AmyJune Hineline (volkswagenchick), who is here to tell us about the Mentoring Initiative.
Welcome back to day 17 of the Drupal Advent Calendar, where Amber Matz (amber-himes-matz) joins us to talk about the new Help Topics module that is part of Drupal Core in the new 10.2 version just released!
