Bee is the command line tool for Backdrop that is developed specifically for Backdrop and is being actively developed. It runs on Linux based systems (including MacOS) but not Windows. It has a number of functions in common with Drush and Brush but there are a few key gaps.
My colleague Philip Stier has been working on a series of webinars about image optimizations in Drupal, and I thought it would be nice to do a quick overview of some of the parallel ways to optimize images in Backdrop. Some of the techniques are identical, and I'll mention a few others as well.
Maintaining optimized images is important for your site's accessibility and usability on different screen sizes and devices.

Ubercart in Backdrop is looking amazing!
Several members of the Backdrop community have devoted their time and knowledge to making this happen - working on coding, integrations and documentation. Why not spin up a site on Backdrop, and test out this user-friendly set of modules.
We are hoping to hear from
In this session we're going to try a live upgrade of a Drupal 7 to both Drupal 10 and Backdrop CMS.
There is a request from an registrant that we discuss: "development workflows (interactions with GitHub, maintain development/user acceptance/production environments)."
Come along to share your experience and learn from others.
A discussion on measures available in core, contrib and in hosting to secure Backdrop websites.
In Drupal 7 there were many ways to setup e-commerce sites, and lots of sites were setup with each of those options. Ubercart has been ported and has a lot of other modules to extend it, but many others are not ported yet or are only available with minimal or partially ported features.
Come discuss the commerce options that are available for site owners and what we can do to make more options available.
