Join us on January 17th at the Drupal NoVA meetup at 7 pm for a presentation on Headless Drupal using AngularJS and to help us think through our plans for 2017.

We’d like to get more people involved in the planning and participation process in 2017 to make sure it’s a useful and interesting meetup going forward.

Headless Drupal Presentation

Joseph Hogan, Bixal’s Director of Technology and AngularJS expert, will do a presentation on going Headless with Drupal, covering the advantages of adopting a more generic approach. walking participants through a simple demo, and discussing some of the challenges related to authentication, naming conventions, and what could be done differently.

2017 Planning

Some of the topics we will be discussing / brainstorming to plan for 2017:

  • What are the most interesting topics to cover during the year?

  • Who would like to present from the NoVA group? Who might be great candidates to present that we should reach out to?

  • How to reach more of the NoVA area?

  • The idea of creating an outreach sub-group to organize and do presentations in the community.

Please feel free to send additional topics for discussion to add to the agenda by writing to carla.briceno@bixal.com.

Our regular meetup is the third Tuesday of every month - rotating between ICF and Bixal in Fairfax. This meetup will take place at Bixal in Fairfax, VA.

Look forward to seeing you there!
