A plan for Drupal and Composer https://dri.es/a-plan-for-drupal-and-composer

“Automatic Updates Initiative. We are exploring if an automated update system can be build on top of the Composer Initiative's work, and provide an abstraction layer for those that don't want to use Composer directly. I believe that could be truly game-changing for Drupal, as it would remove a great deal of complexity.”

It’s been a while, but thanks to Jim Birch, we are back in action and with this our final episode of 2017, we will do the obligatory year in review and a look forward to 2018.

On a side note, in this episode I do state that this episode will be out before Christmas, and Mario didn’t believe me. It turns out, he was right.

(Mario): Michelle: The Synergy of Search Engine Optimization and Web Accessibility
Search engine optimization and web accessibility are complementary processes. Focus on one and you likely positively affect the other without additional effort.

(Bob): Chris: Registering Migrations in Drupal 8
In Drupal 8, registering migrations is done slightly different. Instead of using hook_migrate_api(), they are listed in yaml files and implemented as configuration for the module in module_root/config/install/*.yml.

(Mario): Cheryl: 5 Design Ideas to Increase Engagement on Your Website
No matter what industry you’re in, chances are your website is battling for visitor attention. No less than a fully optimized web presence built to respond to any device is required to get ahead of today’s fierce, strategic competition. Cisco estimates that 50 billion smart devices will be connected to the Internet by 2020 – that’s three times the 15 billion devices that are connected today!
