Hey Alex is back! That's right, this month he will be discussing Behat as a development framework. This is not a Drupal specific framework but is certainly used with many Drupal projects.

As always, there will be food and drinks provided by AppliedTrust so I hope to see you there.

Last month, during the Drupal 8 Panel, Gabe Sullice talked about some of the gaps in D8's out-of-the-box RESTful tools. This month, he's going to demo a contrib module he's built that looks to fill those gaps. We'll use this module to take a deeper look at D8 module development - coverering things like services, dependency injection, custom routes and controllers, and custom configuration management.

Pizza and socializing starts at 6:30 p.m. Discussion and presentations start at 7. At 8:30 we'll head down to Renegade Brewing to continue hanging out.

This month we'll have a panel discussing Drupal 8 First Impressions. Panelists will discuss their favorite features, things that might have tripped them up, and things they'd like to see improved going forward. This will be an interactive session, so come with questions or topics you'd like the panel to address.

The panelists:

Joel Steidl is the Director of Engineering at Aten Design Group.

Michael Lander is the Technical Director at Elevated Third.

Gabe Sullice is a backend developer at Aten Design Group.
