This is a local user group for sharing knowledge about Drupal and networking with other folks in the greater Seattle web/tech community.
SeaDUG meets monthly to talk about Drupal, to plan related events, and to socialize. During SeaDUG meetings we showcase modules and projects, share tips and tricks, and answer nagging questions about Drupal.
We welcome participants from all skill levels and all disciplines related to website building and development - marketers, project managers, developers, designers, writers, devops, user researchers, QA, and more.

SeaDUG Front-End Online Meeting (8/13/19)
Today we'll be looking at my work in progress with the USWDS theme: https://designsystem.digital.gov/
I'm using the USWDS Base Drupal theme: https://www.drupal.org/project/uswds_base
USWDS is a design system for government websites. It's created to provide a consistent and high quality experience that's quick and easy to implement. This helps lower the barrier to upgrading old platforms and making government services and information more accessible.
I'll share what I learned about using this system to design and develop a new theme for the Forest Service.

Anyone an expert on setting up SimpleSAMLphp? I have a Drupal 7 site that needs to have SSO with an Instructure (Canvas) site, but I'm having trouble getting the authentication to work between the service providers and identity provider.
