Distributions are dead, long live distributions: a Drupal CMS story

Drupal CMS is one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken by the Drupal community. It tries to solve some of the same problems long faced by distributions…but it’s not a distribution. It’s built entirely on Drupal’s game-changing new recipe system.

This session will look at how Drupal CMS compares to a traditional distribution, and share techniques you can use to build your own starter kits. We’ll cover:

- Drupal CMS’s install profile — why it’s there, what it does, and whether you need one.
- How to manage configuration in a site built with recipes.
- Designing recipes that are shareable building blocks.
- Making it easy to add new features.

Building the future of Drupal: 11, 12 and Starshot

As of DrupalCon Barcelona 2024, Drupal 11.0 is still very new, but we already know when Drupal 12 will be released. Work on Starshot is well underway, and the Driesnote will provide a high-level update on its progress. This session will dive deeper into how these components shape Drupal's future. How does Starshot build on Drupal core, and what does it mean for the future of core and contributed projects? What are the benefits of Starshot for new and existing sites? How can we make starting with Drupal and staying up to date easier while keeping your full control?

Drupal CMS Panel: Key Leads Answer Your Questions

Join us for an engaging Drupal CMS panel featuring key leaders from the Starshot project in a fireside chat-style discussion. They will share their perspectives on the future of Drupal, current challenges, and opportunities, while also answering questions from the audience.
