This presentation ain't going to get you off the "Drupal Island", but it will teach you how to turn palm trees into a questionably-seaworthy raft. In this Drupal 8 presentation, we'll break down all those scary-sounding Symfony words into concrete terms:

  • Routes
  • Controllers
  • Services
  • the Service Container
  • YAML
  • Object Oriented programming
  • Dependency Injection
  • the Drupal Console
  • Including a LIVE DEMO of Drupal 8 development in PhpStorm, which we're sure will go smoothly.

So don your thinking caps, bring your questions, and prepare for an entertaining and enlightening discussion of the Drupal 8 / Symfony world.
