Almost a complete rewrite under the hood, Drupal 8 is a modern, PHP 5.5-boasting, REST-capable, object-oriented powerhouse. Now leveraging third-party components from no less than nine different projects, Drupal 8 aims to be the premiere Content Management Platform for PHP. But how do you use all this newfangled stuff?

In this webinar, our speaker will walk you through Drupal's key systems and APIs that are intended to give developers a taste of what building with Drupal 8 will be like.

Who Should Attend This?
- Established Drupal 7 devs looking to transition to Drupal 8
- Established PHP devs looking to get a taste of Drupal 8

Why Should You Attend This?
- To learn the basic patterns of developing modules for Drupal 8
- To understand how typical Drupal 7 tasks map onto Drupal 8 concepts
- To know how to leverage existing knowledge of modern PHP and Symfony in particular, when building Drupal 8 modules

Can you please not spam your

Can you please not spam your announcements across dozens of completely unrelated groups? Group audience is not a free-form SEO-spam tag field.

Please stop spamming unrelated groups

I wholeheartedly agree with fuzzy76. I get more Drupal Groups spam from this one user than the legitimate groups that I'm actually a member of.

Furthermore, 21:30 Kolkata time is 3:00AM in Melbourne, the location of one of the groups where you've spammed this free webinar.

Please stop.

Completely agree - please

We got the point guys, if you agree with fuzzy76, please just give a plus to the first comment, you are spamming everyone's mailbox too !

(me too, I know but hopefully I'll be the last...)

My apologies for the multiple posts

Hi Everyone

I sincerely apologize for posting this event in so many unrelated Drupal Groups.

The intent was to share this D8 webinar with as many people as I could, especially with the release date just around the corner. However, I didn't realize that many of the groups I'm a part of wouldn't relate well with the topic.

I've removed the event from most of the unrelated groups and am consulting a friend who can help me with removing it from some other ones. Thank you all for raising this and I assure you that this would not be repeated.

(This would be the last update in everyone's inbox. Sorry again)

Regards, Rajat

Editing This Post

Gang,
I'm going to edit this post and reduce it to be visible only on the Curriculum And Training group.
I looked around and here's what some users do when they offer online classes.
a] post in "Curriculum And Training"
b] post in a few, select geographical groups near their location. [Example, user lives in NYC and posts in a few college groups in NY, NJ as well as the actual NY and NJ groups]

My recommendation, Rajat,
Promote your training via Twitter and LinkedIn to a broader audience. But for GDO keep it way low. Feel free to edit this node and ADD in some of the groups in your immediate area.

I hope you have a GREAT turnout!
THNX!
