Adding a touch of class to Drupal 7 by Keith Crooks

The release of Drupal 8 has brought Drupal development up to date with more modern Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) techniques. But it’s possible to incorporate these into your Drupal 7 development with the help of a few handy Contributed modules. This talk will give you a brief overview of some of these modules together with some examples of how you can utilise them in your projects to keep procedural code to a minimum.
