Drupal User Group

Join us for a double whammy event for a celebration of the groundbreaking new Drupal 8 release and the launch party for the innovative new Drupal Hub collaboration being developed at Sunderland Software Centre. We'll have a presentation about Drupal 8 and join the global showing of appreciation to all those who have contributed to this amazing achievement. Drupal Hub is a new initiative between Consult and Design, Make it Sunderland, Sunderland Software City and Drupal North East to put the Software Centre at the heart of the Drupal community in the region.

Drupal Drinks Dundee has joined forces with the Dundee MakerSpace to bring you "Web Workshop" - a monthly meet-up for people, of all skill levels and specialities, interested in web development and web technologies.

The format is a little different from your typical tech meet-up, with a short introductory talk about the subject followed by a longer hands-on practical workshop taking you through the nuts and bolts of the new and exciting technology and creating your very own “Wonderthing” ™ out of it.

Hope everyone is enjoying the sunny-ish summer.

After last months break, Drupal Drinks Dundee is back on Tue 19th August (1 week today)!

We'll catch up with the latest Drupal news and the main talk this month will be on the Feeds module. Learn how to import all sorts of wonderful things into Drupal and how to customise the module for those special use cases.

Next Drupal Dundee meetup is on 17th June (this coming Tuesday)!

Keeping with the tradition of 1 year ago, for the main presentation I'm proposing we watch Dries' keynote from DrupalCon Austin ... provided everyone hasn't already seen it! If you've already watched Dries' keynote and would rather I did a talk on the Feeds module instead then please leave a comment below.

Next Drupal Dundee meetup is on Tuesday 15th April, where we'll discuss lots of the latest Drupal news (including the upcoming Drupal Camp Scotland!!).

If anyone has a topic they'd like to present then feel free to add a comment. If not, I'll do an overview of Symfony2, which is used heavily in the upcoming Drupal 8 release.

We'll meet in the same room as last month, room 2F10 in the Dalhousie Building (http://www.dundee.ac.uk/general/campusguide/virtualtour/dalhousie/). The room is available from 6.30 and we'll kick off at 7. We'll aim to finish before 8.30pm.
