Breakout Room 1

What has changed since the last Backdrop LIVE?

I had "Vibe Coding" in the title, but removed it, because it doesn't help much. 

Wikipedia says: "Vibe coding is an AI-dependent computer programming practice where a programmer describes a problem in a few sentences as a prompt to a large language model (LLM) tuned for coding. The LLM generates software, freeing the programmer from having to write and debug the underlying code. Vibe coding is claimed by its advocates to allow even amateur programmers to produce software without the extensive training and skills which coding previously needed."

We are looking for 5 people to give a short demo of a module or theme. Either a module they maintain or just one they like to use. Could be an obscure module that site architects should know about or a more popular module that you love to use.

We have five slots during this session:

What are recipes?

How to use recipes?

How to create your own recipes?

Since the last Backdrop LIVE, Robert Garrigós has released the Config Deploy module, which makes it much easier to create a recipe. We'll show you how to use this module to create your own recipes.

Welcome to Backdrop LIVE.

We will ask (but don't require) that everyone introduce themselves and tell us a little about their experience with or interest in Backdrop CMS. Other agenda items for this opening session:

1. How Backdrop LIVE works
2. Welcome message from Nate Lampton
3. Opportunity to add topics to the schedule

What's the inside word on Drupal 7 EOL?

I'd like to discuss the possibility of improving the documentation for contrib projects.  Not every project will need this and for many the README is all that is needed, but some use the Wiki.  Wikis are alright but they are not searchable, either internally or from Google.

I've been experimenting with VitePress (used for Lando documentation) as a Github Action to publish into pages.  At present, GitHub Pages are disabled in backdrop-contrib but perhaps this could change?

I did a presentation a few months back in Asheville about a security incident that I experienced.  Let's not rehash the entire talk but expand it to discuss strategies and tools to keep passwords and secrets secure.

There has been much activity since the last Backdrop Live regarding the use of AI in the Drupal space.  I have goals to bring some of this functionality to Backdrop after working with it in Drupal.  Let's talk about possibilities and perhaps come up with a gameplan for porting and/or creating similar functionality for Backdrop CMS.
