Presentation: Get under the hood of Drush and Drupal by Alexar Pendashteh
Drush (http://www.drush.org/en/master/) is a command-line tool to interact with a Drupal installation. Most Drupal developers use it for general purposes like enabling a module or clearing cache. We'll have a better look at what Drush actually is and how it could help us manage, develop and debug a Drupal application. We'll also have a look around Drupal core to understand how things happen and how we can control its behaviour.
This presentation is targeted towards developers (back-end and front-end) but site builders and site admins may also benefit.
Looking for work?
A chance for Drupal developers who are looking for work (contracts, partnerships, employment) to make a 1 min pitch to the audience. This is your chance to intro yourself. Be sure to mention your skills and what work you are looking for.
Lightning talks
Got a quick 5 min talk about how you use Drush? Bring it along on the day.
Get involved
We are actively encouraging presenters and mentors to come forth to take part in future events. If you have some ideas, just let us know. Each month there is room for lightning talks as well, so if you have something to present bring it along.
