Technical Director
This month at Coder Lounge...
- Chris continued working on Paragraphs Kit - a package of Features to the paragraphs module. It provides a flexible collection of content widgets to be shared across all content types on a site providing greater power to content authors to create interesting content at reduced cost of delivery.
- Pete continued his work on improving the environment codebase rollout process by making Features write update functions automatically based on what has changed since the previous update. This both saves time for developers when producing such code and also helps to ensure best practice to ensure that configuration changes are always shared between all people working on a project.
- Mike and John have been working on our internal systems, developing tools for managing multiple site assets and providing KPI data about our active projects.
- Adam is writing puppet scripts with a view to producing a standardised local vagrant image for our development environments which makes testing and diagnosing environment faults easier.
- David is continuing his investigations into producing iOS apps which integrate with Drupal sites using only HTML, JS, CSS and tools called PhoneGap and a Drupal integration for PhoneGap called DrupalGap.
