Backdrop For Beginners

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.

Improving Backdrop Contrib documentation

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?
