Case study: Sonositeinstitute.com
Sonositeinstitute.com was previously a badly built, very fragile Drupal 7 website. It is now a highly functional, responsive, multilingual D8 site that shares assets with a public facing web app. Damon Logan and Charlie Jackson will share the bumpy journey to the upgraded site.
Custom configuration
We'll discuss how to create a simple configuration form in Drupal 8 and extend existing configuration with third-party settings.

Meeting tonight!
Our monthly SeaDUG meeting is tonight, so join us if you can. Damon and Charlie will present a case study on upgrading Sonositeinstitute.com to Drupal 8. I'll demonstrate how to create a simple configuration form and extend existing configuration. Food and beverages will be provided.
Good meeting last night
Thanks to everyone who came out last night, especially to Damon for sparking a lively discussion about multilingual site functionality and translation services during his case study presentation.
In my demo, I covered a lot quickly, so I've added the SeaDUG module to GitHub, in case you want to give it closer scrutiny: https://github.com/rlhawk/seadug. If you have any questions about creating custom configuration or adding third-party settings to configuration entities, don't hesitate to contact me in the SeaDUG Slack workspace.
