For what is going to be one of my latest updates on Pitchburgh, I wanted to do something special. I wanted to use this update to celebrate our community, our individuals and our work.
🚀 Exciting news for the Drupal community! Introducing the Drupal Contributor Guide – your roadmap to impactful contributions. 💡 Get involved and make every contribution count! #Drupal#OpenSource#Community
Hey folks, I've been diving into artificial intelligence lately, curious about how it could supercharge our human abilities, and maybe even drive #Drupal to new heights.
So, I thought I'd tinker around with an #AI tool to whip up some fresh logos that embody the forward-thinking, innovative spirit of Drupal. Again, just for fun, please note that I'm not proposing anything here and I love the current logo 😊
Here's what it came up with – what do you think? Which one is your favourite?
I’m so excited to announce that “The Access Policy API has been added to core and will be released with Drupal 10.3”
In Kristiaan Van den Eynde words:
“We are currently hard at work at making sure core itself also implements said API by the time of that release. The merge request has zero test fails and is currently awaiting final approval.”
Are you looking to migrate from #Drupal 7 to Drupal 10+? Don't overlook the crucial aspect of building the infrastructure for a seamless transition. Luckily, there's a tool that can help: @ddev Let me show you how.
And massive thx to Sylvie Tse and Jenn Shramek finding the old article, @acquia for republishing it, and @hestenet for your always priceless reviews and tips
What are your thoughts on this? What about #Drupal? Think about going to the issue queue of a module you maintain, and ask an #AI, hey, fix this issue for me... 🤔 I personally think that's actually possible right now.
@AlexMoreno I'm also not a fan of AI tools when it comes to #Drupal coding. Spitting out a lot of boilerplate code, which is what AI is limited to, can also be done by Drupal code generators, and they are vetted and tested.
Analysing problems, architecting solutions and optimizing code are the 3 topics, that I do the most and I don't expect AI to be helpful there.
A few weeks ago we announced the (Drupal) Credit Bounty Program.
I am super excited to announce that the idea has been working pretty well. So well that we want to expand the pilot to further projects, ideas and contributed modules.
But this time, we are also listening to our community. Nominate your innovative module or send me your own.
#Drupal family, we need your feedback. The @drupalassoc is conducting a survey to improve the Drupal contribution journey, and your feedback is critical. By taking just a few minutes to fill out a short form, you can help shape the future of Drupal contributions.
Please take a moment to complete the survey. Your feedback will help ensure that Drupal remains a vibrant and thriving open-source community.
We are discussing to add a new field in drupal.org to capture some information, like what is the role of the user registering (developer, marketing, ...).
The idea is to promote contribution amongst the roles that make sense. Feedback and opinions would be much appreciated in this d.o issue that I have made public. Thanks 💙
Also, MVPs of the month, highlighting the awesome @volkswagenchick that I am grateful to have collaborated with these past months, and all the organisations that contributed to make #Pitchburgh a reality:
