“AI codes instantly, flawlessly!” 

“AI breaks everything, obviously!” 

Whether you're an AI optimist, a pessimist, or somewhere in-between, there's no getting around it: if you aren't shipping AI-generated code yet, you will be. Are you and your team prepared for it?

This session will help developers learn how to reliable send emails from their Drupal site for things like transactional emails, password resets, confirmations, and newsletters.

This session will specifically cover:

“Shifting left” means integrating testing and quality checks from the very start of a project, rather than near the end. This approach helps detect issues sooner, reduces rework, and improves overall quality—an especially important factor in higher ed digital projects with multiple stakeholders.

An exploration of curiosity – and its role in design

All our lives we hear the word in various forms – as an adjective, a noun, a verb. But what is it? Where does it come from? How does it grow? 

Stay after the keynote for our group photo and/or head to Gaige 200 for a coffee break. 

Many of us in the Drupal community enjoy coffee, and the Drupal Coffee Exchange is a way to celebrate the magic elixir many of us use to fuel our days. The Drupal Coffee Exchange allows community members to stay caffeinated and share their favorite coffees with other enthusiasts.

Security and privacy compliance certifications—like SOC 2 (a leading audit standard for security, availability, and confidentiality) and HITRUST (a healthcare-focused security framework) — are becoming requirements for healthcare, finance, and other high-trust industries.

Tooling fatigue in web development is real, and Drupal is not exempt from having its own version of this. Depending on the chosen tooling and approach, additional tooling may just end up adding overhead, cognitive load, and unnecessary effort.

After a long day of Drupal come relax with a drink and some great eats.
