This month's Portland Drupal User Group will take place at Phase 2 (514 NW 11th Ave #203 · Portland, OR)
On the second Wednesday of every month at a rotating location, come to the Portland Drupal User Group meetup to talk about Drupal and hear a few presentations.
This month Ryan Price will be leading a session on beginning Drupal 8 module development. If you wish to follow along, please set up a basic drupal site using the Drupal Composer template on your favorite development environment: https://github.com/drupal-composer/drupal-project
You can also check out this blog post by Ryan, which may serve as some of the example code for this session: https://ffwagency.com/learning/blog/drupal-8-services-dependency-injecti...

As an icebreaker question, we'll talk about a Drupal module we've had to write or hack recently. If you don't write modules yet, share another success or annoyance.
Pizza and socializing starting at 6pm followed by presentations starting at 6:30 pm. Following the meetup, we will head to a nearby pub for socializing.
