Breakout Room 1

How do people in the know develop under Windows? WSL? MAMP PRO? PhpStorm? Others?

How to deploy to Ubuntu?

In Part 1, we talked about using Backdrop CMS to run your entire business, from job tracking to stadium screens. Now, let’s get our hands dirty and talk infrastructure. If your business apps are critical, you need speed, reliability, and full control over your data.

We're trading expensive cloud bills and vendor lock-in for a lean, powerful, self-hosted infrastructure stack that keeps you in the driver's seat.

This is a deep dive into what DevOps need to develop, deploy, and automate your mission-critical Backdrop applications:

You already know Backdrop CMS builds great websites. But what if it could revolutionise your business processes, manage your clients, and even control the big-screen TV at sports stadiums?

For beginners and people of all levels who may be able to share their tips and suggest solutions on getting started working on core Pull Requests.  I am happy to be the facilitator and kick it off with some of my experiences getting started with core PR's and setting up a useful local environment.

Let's talk about all of the things AI and I have been working on.

Working with tools like New Relic to optimize performance.

An opportunity to ask beginner questions about Backdrop CMS. We'll have a demo site ready to show how to do things and answer your questions LIVE. A perfect place to ask beginner questions about things like:

* Content Types and Fields
* Getting Started with Views
* The Backdrop CMS Layout System

Out of the box, Backdrop CMS has Views that can have exposed filters and Search.

However, there are modules that can extend the capability of Views and Search including integration with third party solutions including AI.  The purpose of this session is to give a high level overview of the options with very brief demos.  The idea being if there is demand to dig deeper, these sessions can be added later in the unconference.

This module has been around for a while and serves a interesting use case. If you want to move content from one website to another, you can use BIEN to export it and import it. 

For advanced use cases, something like the Feeds module is a more powerful and flexible solution. BUT, BIEN is much easier for simple use cases.

Let's look at what the modules does now, talk about what it should do, and discuss any better alternatives that might exist (if any)?
