Dipping Your Toe into Drupal 8 Module Development

Presenter(s)

  • Suzanne Dergacheva

Maybe you consider yourself a Drupal site builder or front-end developer. As soon as someone starts talking object-oriented PHP, you run for the hills. This makes the prospect of building a module for Drupal 8 scary. But on many projects, site building and theming can get you 95% of the way there, and you just need a tiny bit of code to get the job done.

In this session, I'll walk through a couple simple examples of code you can add to your project to fill in these types of gaps. We'll cover some really essential concepts and code snippets that will help you understand how to read Drupal 8 code and write that 'glue module' to get the website finished.
