Jim Birch
Engineering Director, AI Practice Lead at Kanopi
Jim Birch is Director of Engineering and AI Practice Lead at Kanopi Studios, where he leads engineering teams and oversees responsible AI adoption across roughly 60 people doing Drupal and WordPress work for nonprofits, healthcare, higher education, and municipal clients.
He is a Drupal CMS committer, Recipes Initiative Coordinator, and a Google Cloud Certified Generative AI Leader. He maintains the open source CMS Cultivator and Delivery Record skill repositories, among many other Drupal projects.
Recipes are one of the most exciting things to land in Drupal 10.3, and promise to supercharge site building without the lock-in and pain of distributions. In this session, two maintainers of the recipe system will explain everything you need to know about recipes, and get you started on creating your own. There will also be a lot of really delicious-looking food photos.
We’ll discuss:
- What recipes are, and what they’re for
- What they’re not for, and why
- How to use other peoples’ recipes in your sites
- The basics of creating and sharing your own recipes
- Best practices for building your own “cookbook”
This session is for Drupal site builders of any experience level. It’s a little bit technical, but you don’t have to know a single word of PHP.
