Backdrop CMS Summit

Marsh Cabaret

Backdrop CMS is a content management system based on the Drupal you know and love, but with a new mission that aims to decrease the cost of long-term website ownership.

At the Backdrop Summit you'll learn about the Backdrop software and its differences from the Drupal CMS. Topics covered will include:

Nonprofit Summit

Marsh Theatre

Come with a challenge, leave with a solution. The BADCamp Nonprofit Summit (NPS) is back in Berkeley for 2018 with even more opportunities for nonprofits and developers to collaborate, learn, and grow! 

We’ve got a full day of small-group breakout sessions, all led by nonprofit tech experts. Come to discover new tools and strategies, learn how to use them, and make contacts with other members of the Drupal nonprofit community.

One of the key features of the nonprofit summit is that we take an “unconference” approach followed up with an interactive workshop.

Your website’s data is at risk, but knowing how to protect it can mean the difference between another day in the office and a data breach. By building in encryption from the beginning stages of your site, you will avoid headaches from having to bolt it on after the fact and have more tools at your disposal to keep your users secure.

Building websites with React & Gatsby

Intermediate

Watch the session video here.

React started as a way to build apps. People soon discovered that React's ability to render to string meant that React could be used for building websites where shipping a fast HTML version of the site was necessary.

Gatsby is a very popular way to build websites with React and recently became a company with VC backing to take React deep into the world of CMSs.

Config Management for Drupal Multi-site and Distributions

Intermediate

Drupal 8's Configuration Management System is a modern marvel. We now have a standard way to export, store, and import configuration files.

When working on a single site, built on a fresh Drupal 8 install, the process is pretty straightforward and there are many tools to help along the way.

But what if you're building lots of similar sites? Like a multi-site? Or maybe a Drupal Distribution? Or Install Profile? Or Sub-Profile? In Drupal 7 we had Features. Do we still need that?

You can build any type of form that pushes submission data to any system.
