As Ireland's leading Drupal devlopment agency, we were thrilled that DrupalCon was coming to Dublin. So much so, we were the first Irish agency to add our name to the sponsorhip list (not to mention being the only Irish agency with people giving presenations at it). For the week of DrupalCon we'll be manning Booth 901.

DrupalCon is coming to Dublin next month. Damn, we're exicted. You are too, we know. Actually, apparently there's a small few people still trying to make up their minds on whether to come to DrupalCon Dublin or not.

Sitting on the fence? Don't. Get off the fence, get to Dublin. Here's some reasons why (feel free to add more in the comments).

With three months left to go before DrupalCon Dublin, event planning is in full swing. There's less than a week now to get your sessions submitted for DrupalCon, so it's time to get writing!

This is Alan, calling from the engine room! Were you affected by the Aberdeen Cloud incident that happened on the 28-06-2016? We weren't, but I'd call that partly luck and partly proactivity. We were actually prepared for this.

With the advent of Drupal 8 and the sterling work done by the media team, adding reusable media (in a very user friendly manner) is now a reality. This tutorial shows you how:

You're working on a client's existing site, and they ask for some new functionality. Your first thoughts are: "Yay, some work!" Quickly following that you think: "What do they want? How am I going to build it?" The often unasked question, however, is "How can I integrate this new functionality with what they already have, without making maintenance a nightmare, or even worse, impacting existing functionality?"

This was the user story: "As a site admin, I want to be able to add different types of content chunks on any page with customisable backgrounds, so that we have control over the style and layout of our website". Yes, it's a pretty big user story, but bear with me.

During the Christmas break, I decided to give myself a challenge: increase my knowledge of app building, AngularJS, and Ionic Framework. Since I didn't know very much about any of them, that was the easy part. I then gave myself a second task - build a hybrid app for my local town that would give us home, current weather, and news tabs, with all content being derived from online data sources.

Drupal 8, which we previously called "the most brilliantly amazing responsive accessible version of Drupal to be released so far", has just been released.
