As a follow-up up to the Recipes Initiative Update, we can use this this time to discuss real-life experiences building Recipes, potential opportunities for new recipes, some of the ways site builders can already use recipes, and more.
"[The Recipes Initiative] is a great example of making it easy for people to be part of Drupal and the open web." - Dries Buytaert, Driesnote, DrupalCon Prague
Introduced as "Drupal Starter Templates" during the Driesnote in Portland in 2022, the contributors have been working on the Recipes initiative to bring prepackaged pieces of functionality to ambitious site builders and distribution maintainers ever since.
Ever wanted a Drupal module to delight or impress you in ways you hadn’t expected? There’s a module-expert for that: It’s Martin Anderson-Clutz, co-host of the Talking Drupal podcast.
Please join us on Wednesday 18 September at The Children's Society offices in the Old Street area of London as Martin shares gems he’s uncovered, both as curator and presenter of Talking Drupal’s recurring “Module of the Week” segment and as a Senior Solutions Engineer at Acquia.
One of the key elements of the Starshot Initiative is the rapidly evolving system for Recipes. Designed to accelerate site-building, recipes will help people new to Drupal to solve for common needs, and for users of all skill levels to quickly build out content architectures using best practices.
This talk will discuss the elements that make up a recipe, how to use recipes, and what new capabilities are still in development. We'll also do a deep dive into the Events recipe and its available add-ons, allowing you meet even complex requirements quickly and without custom code.
Managing dates and times is often complex: recurring events, timezones, daylight savings times, regional formatting conventions, and more. Add in additional presentation requirements like add-to-calendar links, registration links, and related content (like agendas, that change for each date instance) and the complexity can seem bewildering.
Fortunately Drupal offers a rich toolset for solving these challenges. In this session we'll explore the solutions, not only showing how they work, but also detailing the modules and the configuration needed.
The code to use recipes has already been merged into Drupal 10.3, and will be a key feature in how we use Drupal 11, and the coming Starshot initiative.
But how will recipes make your life easier, building and managing Drupal websites? In this talk we'll explore exactly what a recipe is, how you can use them, and how you can make your own. We'll talk about the recipes already available, and how the recipes still being developed will play a central role in the future of Drupal.
