Transitioning from D7 to D8 module development
Considering the two days spent in class and price of admission, this training was a worthwhile investment. The course material was well thought out and expertly delivered.
Oscar Merida has a deep understanding of both Object Oriented PHP and Drupal - along with the patience to field my many annoying questions. Like any Drupal event, the other participants were an interesting mix of developers whose input and insights added a valuable dimension to the learning experience.
Special thanks to Carla Briceno for organizing and hosting. Carla is a shining star when it comes to promoting participation in the NoVA Drupal community.
