We search for "Drupal," get a long list of fuzzy pictures, dry statistics, cliche interests (long walks on the beach, higher conversion rates), and vague specifications. Using this (often misleading) information, we have to show up for our first rendezvous ready to commit to a year-long relationship. Is this true love or a marriage of convenience? Will we find out months later that we don't actually like each other? The RFP process strips vendors of their individuality and creativity, reducing their passion to a PDF overstuffed with boilerplate and little thumbnails of their amazing designers, developers, and project managers. Proposals tell you how good a vendor is at writing proposal, not how good their work is. (How many clients are looking to hire professional proposal writers?) In this panel, some of the world's top Drupal business development professionals will speak to the RFP process and other options. The strengths and weaknesses of RFPs will be identified, and creative alternatives will be discussed. If you are writing an RFP, this is your wake-up call. If you are bidding, come learn about your options. Let's architect a better process. Let's provide a solution that maximizes vendors' capabilities and speaks to clients' requirements -- all while building a project team that collaboratively delivers an amazing result. #NoRFPs! Panelists will include: Todd Nienkerk (Partner, Four Kitchens) Crystal Williams Brian Skowron (Sales Manager, Lullabot) Zach Chandler (Web Strategist, Stanford University) This session will be a Drupal-specific version of a SXSW panel I'm on with Joe Rinaldi of Happy Cog: OMG your RFPs are killing me!

The number of contributed modules extending the WYSIWYG experience is vast, and their configuration can be a quagmire. What we'll cover We'll go over how to consider input format creation. We'll look at how (and why) to configure better_formats and wysiwyg_filter. We'll talk about inline image options and why you might choose one method over another (IMCE vs insert). We'll cover some helper modules and configurations for image handling (filefield_paths, filefield_sources, pathauto , transliteration, insert, image_resize_filter, imce). We'll touch briefly on building Features of your configurations, and also pushing configuration into profiles We'll look at both D6 and D7, but mostly 7. The presentation will be accompanied by an installation profile and Features to get you from 0-60 in a speedy manner.

One taxicab company – Green Cab of Madison – has adopted Apple iPads as their vehicle meter and communication device in their Toyota Prius green cabs. Their iPads are outfitted with a mobile app built on Drupal that enables them to collect real-time vehicle location data, to alert drivers of new calls, and to complete credit card transactions. Promet Source has built the iPad app for Green Cab Madison to help them take advantage of mobile technology and optimize their business. We will describe the module used in setting this system up, as well as discuss many challenges that arose during this project and how we have solved them. We will also discuss the tool selection for programming the iPads, and the pros and cons of native and hybrid solutions.

Most shops, and even many larger companies with dedicated Drupal teams, use one-off, unstructured, error-prone systems to get code from development to production. This is not OK. In my experience, these problems are cast under the umbrella of project management. As such, solutions tend to come in two forms: Better project tracking software. Better human communication. Those things are important, but they really miss the big picture. At the end of the day, what matters is getting code from development to production - "delivering" it. Doing that properly means demystifying and solidifying the steps in that process, which entails tools like Git, Jenkins, Puppet/Chef, and Capistrano. Or, in a word: Devops. Building a system that can deliver code in a way that informs and includes all the relevant stakeholders, from developers to product owners, requires the right tools linked with the right mentality. In this session, we'll explore tools and mentality together.

But what restrictions prevent Drupal UX designers from achieving clear and well-targeted user narratives? Drupal does a great job of presenting words in various languages, but truly well-defined user narratives must speak at the level of Idioms – the subtle nuances of speech and terminology that characterizes distinct groups of users - and functional User Roles. Drupal is virtually incapable of achieving this UX goal. Using a real world example as a reference point, this talk will illustrate how to dramatically boost the effectiveness of user interfaces by harnessing the power of user narratives. Along the way, we'll look at how the user narrative model is based on natural 'field-resolution' patterns such as those found within the neurological system. Transcending Drupal's current limits, we’ll explore ways that idiomatic, Role-oriented interfaces have been applied in our case study through the use of our 'User Narratives' module. Through this example, we'll catch a glimpse of the powerful dimension of Role-oriented UX design and the benefits it could potentially bring to all aspects of Drupal's UX.

Whether it is Waterfall, Agile, or Cowboy - web development requires flexibility. Waterfall simply doesn't work in most cases – “ fixed scope” is the Holy Grail of project management. Meanwhile, Agile lacks the level of predictability most clients or employers seek. Cowboy is effective in prototyping and extremely rapid development but drives stakeholders crazy. The truth is, project management requires a blend of techniques and tools to effectively shepherd projects from ideation to release. We'll explore and discuss different tools and methodologies that can help make your project successful. Saunders will be premiering this session as one of the keynotes at Drupalcamp Austin.

Another topic of interest are further advances in supporting any kind of storage layer, specifically those emerging under the NoSQL umbrella. In this context there are two standards that are of interested: PHPCR and CMIS. PHPCR defines a standardized API for CMS storage with multiple implementations already under way, that heavily draws from the JCR standard. CMIS on the other hand standardizes a communication protocol. Both solutions also define import/export standards which at the very least could help in letting users more easily migrate their data, between servers. But also migrate from JCR/CMIS compatible solutions of which there exists many open source and proprietary products.

Responsive design has exploded in the past year, as can be easily evident by the number of large (and small) sites adopting responsive techniques to serve content to ALL devices at once using the same codebase.

It can be used to solve a wide range of problems and present many different types of displays; More than what most people realise, even after working with Views for considerable time. This session will demonstrate some advanced but poorly-understood features of Views, such as grouping, "count" and "group by" queries, summary views, non-standard pagers and attached-views. This session will cover an architectural overview of Views 3's classes, and how to extend it's object-oriented code to present data in alternate formats ("Display" or "View" in MVC-speak), allow views to understand and filter data in a specific way ("Controller" in MVC-speak) and to access alternate data sources ("Model" in MVC-speak). A demonstration of extending views in code will follow. Attendees should be familiar with building and editing Views, although it is not necessary they consider themselves "advanced" in this area. It is also assumed that attendees are familiar with object-oriented terminology and the OO concepts of objects, classes and inheritance.

Enter the Mad Hatter's world where anything can be an entity and fields can go everywhere. Already the floodgates are opening as developers and users find new ways to take advantage of all the possibilities: Field Collection, Entity Reference, and Entity Construction Kit are brand new concepts. Bean has re-invented blocks as entities. Media has re-invented files as entities. Organic Groups has been re-written to make groups entities. Drupal Commerce makes commerce transactions into entities. The new Entity Translation module treats groups of translated fields as entities. And D7 is just getting out of the gate. This session will look at some of the new entity and field modules, and some older modules that have been re-invented for D7. We'll talk about how they work and where they could be useful and what they get from using the new entity framework.

To keep up, we need to get more people contributing to core. There are a lot of people who would like to contribute to Drupal core, but they’re not sure how, they don’t feel qualified, and the time commitment feels prohibitive. Meanwhile, as Drupal’s code base becomes more complex, the learning curve for contributing to Drupal core gets steeper. To get more people contributing to core, we need to make it easier to work on core. The Boston Drupal Users Group has decided to dedicate five monthly meetings between October 2011 and Drupalcon Denver to create and test an easier on-ramp for people who want to get more involved. The vision is this: Make a list of all the different ways people contribute to Drupal core. Organize the list like a ladder. The first few steps are easy for anyone, minimal knowledge of Drupal required. As you ascend the ladder, taking any consecutive step up the ladder is within reach, as long as you’ve taken the first steps. For each rung in the ladder, we’re providing clear instructions and goals that make it easy to get up and running with something new in 15-30 minutes. (This way, people can contribute in one-off 1- or 2-hour sittings and get real, valuable work done.) Drupal groups meet regularly all around the world. If each group dedicates a few hours to making contributions and helping members work their way up the ladder, together we can close a ton of issues and bring more people into work on Drupal core. This presentation will give an overview of results and lessons learned in Boston through the months leading up to Drupalcon Denver.

Gone are the halcyon days of static, 5 page websites that are just as rigid as a printed brochure (let's be honest, we don't miss that). This reality has created a great deal of debate within our industry and a fair amount of difficulty in our design processes. In this session we'll cover some basic design concepts and principles that can be applied when designing for CMS-driven websites. We'll also outline some tips and tricks for your design process, and explore some of the biggest hurdles and potential pitfalls in designing for yet created and ever-changing content.

A one-shot, generic and unassuming install will not provide a useful onramp experience for anyone. We have to think in multiples here and define explicit, narrow use cases to help people wrap their heads around the awesome. And a couple of them are out there already. Let me show you them. Lets have a quick update on where we are in making Drupal 8 the most powerful and easiest to use version of Drupal, ever. We’ll establish the playing field by a quick rundown of two main D8UX topics and see how we can apply these to help tackle a third: Builder UX We’re working to improve the site builder tools like modules page, field ui and the everything-is-a-block page builder tool that is part of WSCCI. Editor UX As clunky as the site builder tools may be, we provide even sparser options for people that work in Drupal sites to get the word out. Yet, making it easy for folk to actually create some content is about as core a feature can get. Let’s see how we’re doing there. The total of how we pre-configure these two sets of tools is what to a large extent will define the core Product. If community driven product development is not your thing, I still hope to show you how vital it is to dedicate time and effort on having this playground in core, right now. And ship the funnest parts of it with Drupal 8. No cat pictures but I will sneak in some art history.

Once the launch party is over, the operations hangover sets in. This session will be focused on practical tools and techniques you can use to keep "your fingers on the pulse" of your site, from availability to performance to security. While this is intended for intermediate Drupal developer and administrators, we'll have tips and tricks that even experts will find interesting! Learn about site issues and outages before your customers do! Know about critical issues without completely destroying your personal life. Centralize and analyze your Drupal and web server logs. Use the Nagios module to monitor tens or hundreds of Drupal sites. Track and manage to SLAs (even if you aren't required to). Use security tools and services to detect and respond to vulnerabilities. Manage core and contrib software versions, updates, and patches. Maintain ongoing compliance with security standards (like PCI DSS).

If they fail to pay then kick them out. There's a lot more to it than that though. The truth of the matter is building an effective recurring billing (subscription) system involves a whole lot more than just charging someone's credit card and saying thanks. For example, you need to store credit card info. Which is exactly what everyone tells you not to do. Ever. For any reason. PCI compliant? You better be. Once you've got the customers information you need to actually bill them on a regular basis. But how do you deal with changing the billing interval, canceling or suspending accounts, and dunning management? What about generating metrics to go with these account actions? What happens when you want to offer a discount on a subscription? Does it apply to a single month or multiple months? Is it percentage based or a fixed value? What if you want to provide a discount on the next 2 months for someone who has already been a subscriber for 2 years? We'll also talk a little about the ins and outs of testing new features when developing for sites that use a subscription model and some related best practices. In this session I'll cover some of the ins and outs we've learned about building subscription based systems in Drupal. The presentation itself will provide useful information for anyone using Ubercart or Drupal Commerce as the majority of topics covered are going to pose problems no matter what platform you use.

Users have a need to be able to have a positive experience on the web where they want, when they want, and on any device they happen to be carrying. We're getting good at building applications that can push out data that can be handled by these devices, but the need to collect data from these devices is growing almost as quickly. Personal sensors are becoming commonplace in the devices we use. They include common things like GPS in the cars we use, FitBit to help us track our exercise, or Siri to recognize our voice and assist us with contextual tasks. There exists a need to be able to collect data from these devices and be able to visualize it in a meaningful way. What if you were able to collect the GPS data from every car on the road to help model traffic patterns, or just know that you were going to be late for work? What if your OK Cupid app was able to tell you who to hit on at a bar? Wouldn't it be cool to have a conference ID badge that turned green whenever you passed your favorite module maintainer in the hall so you could ask him or her to review your patch or help you with a problem? (ok, maybe the last one takes it a bit too far) Pulling data from the devices on and around us is a part of developing mobile web applications, but the focus is far too often only on how we present an experience to a user, not how we collect information to enhance that experience. It's important that we take advantage of the lessons we've learned with early augmented reality apps, and use the capabilities that are built into the devices we come in contact with each day to further enrich our experience.

The customer reached out to Acquia to see if the media company’s Drupal platform could be changed to provide them with the best of both worlds. Despite the success of the existing Drupal platform it faced a number of challenges including: It was targeted to meet site development needs but fell short in operations, maintenance, and marketing team member needs.

The costs for the platform were fixed Acquia provided a number of services to help migrate, stabilize, optimize, support, and manage the sites. We will present on how we extended managed cloud to support 200 sites. We will explain the improvements we added: DNS database failover Multi-data center high availability Per site APC optimizations Memcache tuning Separated database services including replication to Solr, Syslog, and no-replication strategies Caching strategies using the reverse proxy-cache Varnish, and the Akamai CDN Amazon Web Services to experiment, scale, and stabilize a platform that could handle unpredictable, predictable, and growing web site loads. We load tested this platform using Soasta for 10,000 concurrent authenticated and anonymous users across 120 sites, including four very large traffic sites with 100% authenticated users. Once their instance of managed cloud was stabilized we migrated over 120 media sites and prepared for an additional 80 sites to be added. To help provide the enterprise tools needed by the operations teams and marketing teams we added new features to the Acquia Network and Drupal Gardens.

The Acquia network provides a web based user experience for dozens of common Drupal system administration tasks including migrating sites between dev, staging, production. 2216 http://blip.tv/file/6022718 Conferences and Other Events Thu, 22 Mar 2012 02:23:34 +0000 http://a.images.blip.tv/DrupalconDenver-ScalingAndSupporting200MajorArtistSitesInTheCloud307.jpg <iframe src="http://blip.tv/play/AYLw0FkC.html?p=1" width="550" height="443" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://a.blip.tv/api.swf#AYLw0FkC" style="display:none"></embed> Scaling and Supporting 200 Major Artist Sites in the Cloud http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 06441E0C-73C6-11E1-B5FE-B2E28D54890F http://blip.tv/drupalcondenver/thinking-big-assembling-a-drupal-web-experience-management-powerhouse-6039540 Thinking big: Assembling a Drupal Web Experience Management Powerhouse DrupalconDenver 949949 drupalcondenver drupalcondenver DrupalconDenver http://blip.tv/drupalcondenver http://blip.tv/skin/blipnew/placeholder_user.gif 6039540 6022717 file no 0.0 2012-03-22T02:23:34Z English Conferences 0 0 0 2 Learning Learning 1 2665 AYLw0FgC http://blip.tv/play/AYLw0FgC http://blip.tv/comments/?attached_to=post6039540&skin=rss DrupalconDenver-ThinkingBigAssemblingADrupalWebExperienceManagementPower629.jpg Drupal is disrupting the traditional CMS market & is winning.

Instead of letting the theme system organically change (piecemeal), like D7 changed from D6, let’s plan the next generation of the theme system by: Documenting problem areas (insolvable bugs, mis-features, inconsistencies, etc.) Documenting features and abilities we'd like to keep Figuring out new and better features we’d like to see in our theme system Item #1 is already being compiled on drupal.org in the “Gather pain points from themers about the theme and render system and develop an action plan to address them” issue.

However, University Communications and the Office of Information Technology are jointly building an enterprise class Drupal web platform for websites throughout the entire campus. We're thrilled to be able to offer Drupal as a service to the campus - making it easier for our campus faculty, professors, students, and alumni to build and interact with complex, functional websites. In January of 2012, we launched the most visible change, a new homepage for colorado.edu. Over the coming months leading up to DrupalCon we're going to be expanding the system by bringing more sites online. By then we'll have all our kinks worked out, and we'll be able to share our successes and failures. This will be a panel discussion run by a handful of the key members of the team. We'll cover a wide range of topics: Getting the initial funding Building the stack - F5, Varnish, Memcache, Apache, PHP, MySql Nuts and bolts of Enterprise Class Drupal site building Design process and theming Training our faculty and staff Spreading the word around campus We won't have time to go in to every detail, but we'll go as far as we can. It's been a year long project that's going to be well worth the wait. We're excited to share some of what we've been working on, but we also know that we've only scratched the surface. This project is going to change over time, and we're adapting everyday. We'll try to give a glimpse of where this could go in the future.

After migrating over 180 websites in a massive multi-site setup we have a good understanding on this process and have some words of wisdom to share with you. 3453 http://blip.tv/file/6022523 Conferences and Other Events Thu, 22 Mar 2012 00:24:07 +0000 http://a.images.blip.tv/DrupalconDenver-HeadsUp7UpMigrationToDrupal7473.jpg <iframe src="http://blip.tv/play/AYLwzxYC.html?p=1" width="550" height="443" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://a.blip.tv/api.swf#AYLwzxYC" style="display:none"></embed> Heads Up 7 Up - Migration to Drupal 7 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 54262CC0-73B5-11E1-ADE2-EE71B30AE2C7 http://blip.tv/drupalcondenver/open-academy-a-higher-education-drupal-product-for-departmental-websites-6039345 Open Academy: A Higher Education Drupal Product for Departmental Websites DrupalconDenver 949949 drupalcondenver drupalcondenver DrupalconDenver http://blip.tv/drupalcondenver http://blip.tv/skin/blipnew/placeholder_user.gif 6039345 6022522 file no 0.0 2012-03-22T00:24:03Z English Conferences 0 0 0 2 Learning Learning 1 3859 AYLwzxUC http://blip.tv/play/AYLwzxUC http://blip.tv/comments/?attached_to=post6039345&skin=rss DrupalconDenver-OpenAcademyAHigherEducationDrupalProductForDepartmental430.jpg The university department is at the center of academic life. All across higher education, tens of thousands of departments have organized themselves to teach courses and perform research. As it turns out, most departments need a website to promote their work and each of those websites is basically the same. Open Academy is an academic departmental website in a box. Built by Pantheon, Chapter Three, and the University of California at Berkeley, we have baked in critical functionality around departmental news, faculty profiles, publications and presentations, events and calendaring, courses, resources and links, video, social media, and degrees and programs. Out of the box, Open Academy lets a department get an amazing and extendible website. As a bonus, Open Academy was built entirely with the Panels module utilizing the In-Place-Editor, pane level fields override, style plugins, layout aware pane displays, and much more. Come see a best practice Panels Drupal Product. This session will be given by Matt Cheney (from Pantheon and Chapter Three) and Brian Wood (from the University of California at Berkeley).

The first step to solving a problem is identifying what is wrong and this is something we don’t spend enough time talking about. This presentation will focus entirely on how to analyse a poorly performing site and identify what is wrong. This presentation will start with an example Drupal site. This site will have very slow page load times and exhibit 3-4 problems I see commonly in consulting. These are going to be problems everyone has faced at one point or another; a slow view, a bad module, a misconfiguration, a theme causing problems, etc. The goal for this presentation is not to teach you how to solve these particular problems, but how to find and profile them in general. We will cover the basics of using xhprof, xdebug, devel module, mysql slow query log and more to track down problems such as these. The goal of this presentation is to give the audience some of the basic information, tools and resources to be able to find and solve these problems on their own and even avoid them entirely when designing their own sites.

He will also address how we used innovation accounting to develop a half dozen minimum viable products(MVPs) to reduce the uncertainty in our start-up. Kieran Lal will talk about our customer development techniques and how we moved through the 6 stages of a start-up to grow our business. These real world examples of lean startup techniques will address pivots, MVPs, innovation accounting, and business model types.

Drupal has always (and admirably) had a very light touch in the area of governance, due to our light-touch founder and Benevolent Dictator for Life, Dries. For core development decision making we aim for consensus and Dries is the final arbiter. We have a great community, and this has definitely worked for the community. But... From Wikipedia: Governance is the act of governing. It relates to decisions that define expectations, grant power, or verify performance. It consists of either a separate process or part of management or leadership processes. But… our community is much more than Drupal Core development. And we have many, many issues of decision making, problem solving, and conflict resolution that should never, ever have to clutter Dries' brain. In fact they couldn't. We're a worldwide community with a huge number of participants and a gigantic level of initiatives. But we have no method of dealing with those except a lightly-defined "Consensus" model. This Core Conversation is about Drupal's governance structure. We'll touch on: What governance is. How other open source communities manage themselves. Drupal's current governance structure. Problems with Drupal's current governance structure. Options for the future. Risks of mucking with our governance. If you are an advocate of forking Drupal, replacing Dries, or changing the BDFL model of leadership, please propose your own core conversation. The intent of this conversation is to discuss fleshing out governance in the Drupal world in areas where there is currently no effective decisionmaking/problemsolving/conflict resolution structure. It is not to challenge Dries authority. This isn't a radical session, but rather a very practical one: What should be the future of decision making and problem/conflict resolution within the Drupal Community?

This is a shame because View Modes are an extraordinarily powerful tool for streamlining the theming and development of your site and ensuring consistency of output for your content. View Modes give the themer the ability to show the same content in many different contexts and with the right display for each situation. Through smart use of View Modes, a themer can avoid having the huge stack of node templates and Views displays that we’re used to. In this session, attendees will learn what a View Mode is and how to create custom View Modes both in code and with contributed modules. We’ll demonstrate how to set and export display settings for all of your View Modes. We will also spend time looking at the design strategies and types of site elements that View Modes are well suited for.

Today, though, the field is crowded with user review sites. How does a premium review community like Zagat keep its edge in providing a useful and unique product? In February, 2011, Zagat.com relaunched on Drupal, retiring an aging ASP.NET with a new site packed full of social features. In addition to making it easier than ever to research and find great restaurants, the new Zagat.com is faster than its competition and, thanks to new internal procedures, is more able to respond quickly to bugs and roll out new functionality. Come learn about the ways that Zagat Survey and Treehouse Agency partnered to streamline the develop, test, and deploy process.

If with the click of a button you could export the mobile site as .html files that you can bundle in your app? Meet: Drupal Mobile App Generator This module allows you to create cached pages of a predefined menu and with that to export your mobile site to your app. You can then use phonegap to build a native implementation of it. This session will outline the steps to build a simple mobile site and then create a mobile app out of that. 1. First we create a menu structure. 2. Then we create some pages. 3. Add a nice mobile theme. 4. Click on a button. And out comes our mobile app. This session will show what is needed to be able to auto-generate mobile apps easily and swiftly. It'll be a beginner level session, which shows all steps from configuring the information in Drupal to creating the app and testing it in the iPhone simulator. It is a practical and live session. Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Wouldn't it be nice if you could create your mobile app completely in Drupal? If with the click of a button you could export the mobile site as .html files that you can bundle in your app? Meet: Drupal Mobile App Generator This module allows you to create cached pages of a predefined menu and with that to export your mobile site to your app. You can then use phonegap to build a native implementation of it.

Usability studies provide a firsthand look at how users experience a product and are incredibly effective at highlighting interface flaws and confusions. However, the impact these studies have are limited by their audience; it is only those present during the study who really feel engaged with it. After the analysis and recorded videos have been released, the thrill of the discussion and collaborative brainstorming has already died down. When you open up usability studies to the world, you have the power to stir an army of people into action. Everyone watches the same users getting frustrated, everyone feels the same pain at interface quirks, and everyone participates in the discussion, and ultimately the solution. We believe that live usability studies are the best way to advocate for a focus on user experience in Drupal development. In this talk, we will explain how we ran this study, key insights we gained from it, and how to do it again.

In this session, I talk you through some principles that will help you deliver the warm fuzzies without getting in the way of a form's essential purpose, and we'll cover in detail how to implement several common form enhancements like in-field labels, conditional input display and on-focus style changes, among several others. While we will be talking through PHP code, illustrating CSS styles and demonstrating some fun jQuery, feel free to attend just for the ideas. If you're a developer, you may have some ah-ha moments when we walk through how to set up and infinitely expanding registration form with Ajax, and non-developers will likely gain some insight into a range of possibilities for form enhancement that they might never have heard of.

Everything is going great, then suddenly you realize you need to change one of those things that starts with a "$" inside those funny-looking tags. Panic! You exclaim... "Crap! Where does come from?! How do I change it?!" or maybe... "Crap! I need to have an extra CSS class on this body tag that depends on the taxonomy of the node on the page! Is that possible?!" or perhaps even... "Crap! I need a dropdown on a node edit form to change the way how a differet image field is rendered! How can I get that working?!" Sound familiar? Preprocess functions are the diplomats of Drupal themes. They are the missing link between what happens in the modules, and what gets sent to the template files. Goals: In this session, we'll dispel PHP fears, and get our feet wet with a little code that goes a long way to helping out with improving the flexibility of our theme. Prerequisites: Some experience with Drupal theming, general understanding of the templating system, good understanding of HTML and CSS, some basic familiarity with PHP. If you have a good grasp on the topics from from my proposed introduction to theming session, this is probably for you.

Should this site be customized to each user, or be able to serve 1000 users at once? If I make this system super-duper-flexible, can I build anything useful with it or will it be too unstable? Every program, every module, every site involves decisions to balance one priority over another. Balancing competing priorities is the responsibility of every architect, whether we're talking about a program, a site, a building, or a social system. There is no easy answer to what balance to strike, but fortunately there is are ways to understand and think about those trade-offs to make them easier. In this session we will examine some of the main aspects of software architecture -- Performance, Scalability, Learnability, Modularity, Testability, etc. -- and how they relate to, support, and contradict each other. The goal will not be to find a magic bullet to have our cake and eat it too, but to develop a better understanding and vocabulary of how to create the right balance for our sites and for our favorite CMS.

However, there are plenty of other great sessions in the mobile track that dive into code and implementation. In this session, we will explore the how the recent explosion of devices has disrupted the process of designing a website that we've crafted over the past decade. When designers only have one instance of website (i.e., desktop) to design, the layout is uniform. The header, content area, sidebar, and footer all remain static. Furthermore, the elements are relatively uniform as well. Buttons, navigation, typography, and images are all basically the same across across the various pages. But if you are designing a responsive website – one whose look and feel adapts depending whether you're using a phone, laptop, or tablet – then these elements and especially the layout begin to diverge. What we'll cover The new process Mobile first strategy Content strategy Design strategy Design patterns Prototyping! Best practices Layout Media Gestures Progressive enhancement Tools Responsive media Frameworks Testing After this session, you should leave with the confidence to argue the importance of responsive design to your client or boss – and that the with the proper strategy, the extra effort and costs can be justified (and hopefully minimized). Who should attend this session? This session is non-technical, and will benefit any UX/interaction designer, design director or product owner/stakeholder who is building a new responsive website, or wants to convert their existing site to be Future Friendly.

For the past year I've been writing and launching websites built on node.js which run javascript on the server. This presentation is a update from the front lines of what using javascript for nearly everything is like. The talk is about Javascript as a programming language doing heavy lifting on a daily basis. I'll talk about my experiences using it everyday, what is hard in javascript, what is missing from the language, and how people are trying to fix it. I'll cover the lessons I've learned from the server-side which have changed how I use javascript client side. I'll look in depth at node.js, at its 'event loop' execution model, how async can make you crazy, and how to step back from the edge. I'll talk about how javascript applications on the server work, how they scale, and how they compare to using php. I'll talk about the things that are easy in node.js and really hard in php.

And Aristotle invented Functional Programming. And the centuries-long debate carries over into Drupal today. Plato was an architect. The world, to Plato, was best expressed as an elegant system of well-ordered ideal objects. Motionless and unchanging, these "forms" composed the world of perfection. But when it came to the real world, "runtime" was messy, full of complicated, ugly, and error prone "copies" of the forms. In contrast, Aristotle saw the world as a dynamic place, a constantly evolving runtime. What makes the world beautiful, functional, and exciting is the dynamic nature of things. While Drupal has never been (truly) functional, much of our approach has been more inline with functional design than with OO or even standard procedural design. Like Aristotle and LISP programmers, Drupal is about what is happening in the moment. Hooks, callbacks, builders. Drupal takes full advantage of PHP's runtime offerings. Drupal is caught between our Aristotelian roots and Plato's enticing world of OO perfection. And this is not necessarily a bad thing. As we begin using Drupal 7 in earnest, and as Drupal 8 development hits full stride, we must ask -- and answer -- what kind of philosopher Drupal is.

Android is a great open source mobile platform. On the local device, it has many sensors (for example, GPS, Accelerometer, barometer, etc) to collect much information that a user can or cannot easily gather. The information travels through the internet, works with remote resources, and returns to users with rich customized results and functionality. This awesomeness -- because of much processing power and logic workflow needed on the Cloud -- demands an equally powerful and open platform on the server end. If developers build a powerful server framework from stretch, it is not fun and too costly to be a favorable solution. Therefore, finding an open-sourced, powerful, extensible and scalable framework should be the first thing on the developers' mind. Drupal, on the other hand, is used by web developers worldwide to build sophisticated community interactive websites. Its big success has been proven since many diverse organizations use Drupal as their core social publishing system for websites and internal collaboration applications. With add-on modules support, Drupal is also a web application framework with tens of thousands of features such as flagging system, approximate search, barcode generation, and many other social publishing functions. The Drupal Services module is the add-on module that allows Drupal content to be retrieved and saved through a standard API using pluggable communication mechanisms including XMLRPC, JSON, SOAP and REST. Also, with pluggable authentication mechanisms including OAuth and Key Auth, the communication between frameworks is highly secured. Furthermore, developers can also easily create their own web services to expose additional integration with contribute Drupal modules or custom code. Therefore, developers will appreciate a marriage between these two great platforms. Building cloud applications with the two platforms will immediately have 1.) Both web portal and mobile portal 2.) The development cost is predictively minimal since the huge open source communities support together with hundreds of thousands of existing add-on features. 3.) The business logistics and workflow is handled on the cloud by Drupal. As we already have a lot of experience with Drupal. 4.)

Depending on the type of site you’re building, the list of modules you’ll need and the configuration settings you’ll choose will vary greatly. Even a single project could include more than one method for translating menus, taxonomy terms, and content. Before you get started, you need to consider your audience, what type of content you have, and how all the pieces of your website will be translated. In this session, we’ll walk you through the steps of creating a multilingual website for an international organization. This will give you an understanding of Drupal’s multilingual architecture and how translations are managed for different parts of Drupal. You’ll learn which modules to use for different use cases, and what to ask your client before you start the project. Whether you’re a site builder or a developer working on your first multilingual Drupal 7 site, this session will help you plan your next multilingual project and get started on the right foot.

Converting a site that already has a high traffic web presence to Drupal while maintaining the legacy site throughout the process is like changing your tires at 60 MPH. Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia tackled this very issue on an enterprise scale, running two CMS systems, Vignette and Drupal, simultaneously under the same domains. While the new site was being built, the legacy site was still being maintained and updated, the Drupal development environment was continuously updated with fresh data from the legacy site, and users were intelligently routed between pages from the old and new sites. New features were rolled out iteratively and a third internal Drupal installation, the "Enterprise Content Library" played the role of a canonical location for all content, while maintaing the integrity of all MSLO's myriad assets. If that wasn't already challenging enough, the MSLO site was deployed in Drupal 6 because it required modules not yet available for Drupal 7, but it also needed some functionality only available in Drupal 7 to be able to manage tens of thousands of user accounts and provide rich, fieldable comments. The solution was to create a separate Drupal 7 environment for users and comments and configuring it as a central repository for the user-facing sites. This not only accomplished the goal at hand, but offered the added benefit of diverting a lot of activity away from the main site. Join us to find out how we tackled these and other issues while the new site components were built, transitioned and eventually launched in an iterative fashion. We will discuss Drupal 6 and Drupal 7 modules we used as well as tools and resources provided by Akamai and Varnish. At the end of the session, users should gain a good understanding of how we managed to run existing websites while simultaneously building out a new platform. These issues will be presented both from a technological perspective as well as a general project and program management perspective.

It's suitable for newcomers to the term and experienced developers and designers who are already deeply involved in creating responsive sites. Past The web was stuck inside a lie we had created for ourselves called 960px. Designing sites for the lowest common denomination of screen size. Screens were getting bigger and more varied and we didn’t take advantage of them because it was hard. Mobile web browsing came of age. Screen sizes suddenly got a lot smaller and forced us to stop looking at the web through the 960px view port and start thinking about how users were experiencing our site on different devices. Present Ethan Marcotte introduced a philosophy called 'Responsive Web Design'. It embraces the fact that devices are different and adapts to different contexts. Let's explore the roots of the philosophy and how it gave meaning to techniques people were already using. Since the introduction of the term the web community has embraced it and expanded upon the original concepts. Mobile first responsive design is progressive enhancement taken a step further. Conditional loading introduces the concept of economical enhancement. Don't load what won't be used. Future There’s a lot more to a mobile device than a small screen. If a larger screen size is considered a device capability then what other capabilities do devices have we can take advantage of to create a better experience.

The relaunch included a complete overhaul of both the front-end and back-end design with a move to Drupal and a managed cloud-hosting solution. The new Energy.gov is a significant step forward in the department’s effort to improve digital communications, while also eliminating wasteful spending to the tune of more than $10 million annually. The Energy.gov reform initiative is part of the Obama Administration’s Campaign to Cut Waste, a dedicated effort across the federal government to streamline operations, end unnecessary spending and save taxpayers money. This summer’s launch incorporated eleven departmental program offices websites into the centralized Energy.gov platform. Work to move additional program websites and features to the platform is already underway. This presentation tells the story of what we did, how we did it and why. It will touch upon: • Content strategies for multiple audiences, • Clean, user-centric design, • Drupal as an enterprise CMS solution and • The power of going local with content, design and technology. As Secretary Chu noted at the time of the launch, “Our goal is to make Energy.gov easier to use, more transparent and more participatory. This next phase is part of our ongoing commitment to empower consumers and businesses with information, tools and services they need to create jobs, save money and find opportunities in the new energy economy.” I’ll discuss how we’re meeting that goal and where we’re going next.

Drupal provides the themer with a system of overrides that allows you to change literally anything on your site. Themers decide what gets printed to the screen and what doesn't - essentially what lives and dies. For this and some other reasons, themers have ultimate control. Don't let it get to your head though. Before you can make Drupal bend to your will, you have to introduce yourself via the .info file. From there, you can control style with the CSS we've all come to love. Want to add in your own divs, regions, classes, etc? That will require copying and tweaking one of Drupal's template files (a super easy process). Following this easy pattern, you can get most of the way there without writing PHP. Even if you need to extend the way that breadcrumbs, pagers or other Drupal elements work via the template.php file, you can usually find a friendly companion on Drupal.org who has code you can copy and use without having to fully understand it. By the end of the class, you'll be able to create your own themes, sub-themes and rock Drupal's world like you never have before - all while fulfilling the mantra of a themer: "Make it pretty." [The techniques you learn in this session will apply to both Drupal 6 and Drupal 7, however I will be leading the session in Drupal 7.] Intended audience: Beginners who want to learn the basics of theming without knowing PHP. Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 Believe it or not, Drupal makes theming easy! Drupal provides the themer with a system of overrides that allows you to change literally anything on your site. Themers decide what gets printed to the screen and what doesn't - essentially what lives and dies. For this and some other reasons, themers have ultimate control. Don't let it get to your head though. Before you can make Drupal bend to your will, you have to introduce yourself via the .info file. From there, you can control style with the CSS we've all come to love. Want to add in your own divs, regions, classes, etc?

The project encompasses a large ecosystem of developers, site builders, and businesses; hundreds of APIs and subsystems; and a wealth of contributed modules and plugins. With the rise of install profiles, distributions, and a UX-driven emphasis on product polish, it's easy to see that complexity growing even more. Making sense of Drupal's codebase and its culture requires breaking down the platform's different layers, and understanding their purpose. As the community grows, that knowledge is also critical for your own growth as a developer. Are you a low-level framework hacker? A product-focused engineer with a UX bent? Or do you focus your time on creating the tools that site builders use to construct the next hot web property? In this session, you'll learn how these layers interact, how to identify problems that stem from "blurry boundaries" between them, and how to be a good coding citizen in the modern world of Drupal. In addition, every session attendee will receive a signed, limited-edition animated GIF of Larry "Crell" Garfield.
