Dries Buytaert: Drupal's role in agentic workflows

When we started working on the Drupal AI initiative in June 2025, I assumed most AI features would live inside Drupal.

By my DrupalCon Chicago keynote in March 2026, my thinking had changed. I framed the shift as "inside-out" versus "outside-in" and concluded that not every AI capability belongs inside Drupal. Some work is better done outside the CMS, where AI tools can move faster and connect back to Drupal when needed.

Last week, I explored these ideas in more detail in "AI and the great CMS unbundling". That post argued AI is making the CMS less central as a creation tool, but more important as a control layer: the place where content is structured, governed, reused, and published with trust.

This post picks up from there. If Drupal's role as the control layer is becoming more important, it needs to support AI-driven workflows that run inside Drupal, start outside Drupal, and move across both: external workflows that call into Drupal, and Drupal-native workflows that outside systems can safely rely on.

Drupal joins workflows beyond the CMS

First, Drupal needs to work well with tools outside the CMS: coding agents like Claude Code and Cursor, and orchestration platforms like Salesforce Agentforce, n8n, and Activepieces.

I actually showed what this could look like in my DrupalCon Vienna keynote in October 2025. Here is a short clip of that:

It was a proof of concept demo, and we had some fun with it. But the pattern behind the demo mattered more than the demo itself: an external tool drove the work and handed tasks to Drupal, while Drupal returned structured content and state.

Watch the demo, and it will be easy to imagine the same pattern in a real marketing use case. Campaigns usually begin with a marketing brief and span many tools and channels: email, website landing pages, social media, paid media, and more.

An external agentic platform could generate campaign copy and ask Drupal to build a landing page. Drupal could map the copy to the right structured content type, place it into approved components with Drupal Canvas, save a draft, and flag any fields, metadata, or translations still missing before it can publish.

If Drupal reports a missing hero image, the agentic platform could search the digital asset management system (DAM), find an approved campaign image, and hand it back. Drupal could then attach it through its media model, supply or verify the required alt-text, confirm the page meets its requirements, and advance the draft through the editorial workflow.

This is a pattern that Drupal will need to support well. External platforms can coordinate work across the broader digital stack, but Drupal should remain the system that assembles, validates, governs, and publishes the content.

External workflows call Drupal-native workflows

While the larger campaign workflow may live outside Drupal, there is an equally important case for Drupal-native workflows.

External agents are good at coordinating work across systems. But once a workflow needs to act on Drupal content or data, it should use Drupal's native content model, permissions, validation rules, moderation states, revisions, and publishing workflows rather than recreate them outside of Drupal.

That is where projects like ECA, FlowDrop, and Maestro become more important. They let Drupal turn site-specific processes into repeatable, multi-step workflows that outside systems can call.

For example, any of these three systems could power a single Drupal workflow that validates a draft, coordinates translations in five languages, assigns reviewers, and publishes the content only after all required approvals are complete.

Depending on the task, these internal Drupal workflows can be deterministic, AI-assisted, or fully agentic. Drupal can support that today.

An external agent should not have to manipulate Drupal from the outside, field by field or function by function. It should be able to ask Drupal to execute a Drupal-native workflow through a single external API call.

That is the other half of what I showed in the demo video above. Drupal was not just exposing content to an external agent. It was exposing custom Drupal-native ECA workflows that an external automation tool called.

That was powerful last fall at DrupalCon Vienna, but as agentic workflows become more common, this pattern will only grow in importance.

The best end-to-end experience will win

There is a natural tendency to debate what should live where. Should AI happen inside Drupal, or outside of it? Should workflows be Drupal-native, or managed by external platforms?

Those are useful questions, but the answer is not universal. AI and workflows should live where they create the best end-to-end experience. Sometimes that will be inside Drupal, sometimes outside Drupal, and often across both.

What "best" means depends on the use case, the user, and the requirements for speed, reliability, security, governance, cost, and human review. There will be best practices, but no single approach fits every case.

Who is doing the work shapes what "best" looks like:

  • A developer may prefer an external coding agent like Claude Code.
  • A marketer may prefer a Drupal-native experience that keeps them close to previews, translations, moderation, and publishing.
  • A campaign manager may need an external workflow that coordinates email, social media, analytics, DAM, and CMS.

Work will move across systems and people. The best end-to-end experience will come from doing each step where it can be done best, while making the handoffs feel invisible.

A head start is not a plan to win

Understanding Drupal's role in these future workflows gives us clarity about where Drupal needs to go. Drupal needs to get better at supporting external orchestration, Drupal-native workflows, and the real-world hybrids that combine both.

What makes Drupal interesting is that it already has so much of the hard, unglamorous infrastructure these workflows need: structured content, granular permissions, revisions, rollback, JSON:API, and plenty more. These are exactly the capabilities agents need, and they're genuinely difficult to build well from scratch or retrofit.

Conceptual clarity and a strong foundation are wonderful things, but they are not enough to win.

When I asked whether AI coding agents would recommend Drupal, the issue was not Drupal's capability. It was whether agents could get from prompt to a working Drupal site quickly and easily enough. As I wrote in "Friction, abstraction and verification", agents tend to choose the path that gets them to a real, verified result with the least friction.

For experienced Drupal teams, the challenge is different. They have already chosen Drupal. They do not need an agent to recommend it. They need agents that help them build, validate, and ship quality work faster.

To turn Drupal's advantage into adoption, we need to improve both paths: helping agents choose Drupal for new builds, and helping existing Drupal teams ship better work faster. Both depend on making it easier for agents to work with Drupal from start to finish.

That means Drupal needs to expose the best practices, site context, tool definitions, constraints, and precise validation agents need to take the right actions and verify the result.

A lot of this is already underway across Recipes, Site Templates, Drupal AI, Drupal Canvas, ECA, FlowDrop, Maestro, MCP, and CLI improvements, to name a few.

But the goal is bigger than any one project. Drupal needs these efforts to add up to a clear, coordinated path for agents: from setup to connection, context, governed action, validation, recovery, and launch.

Talish Khan: I Keep Evaluating Alternatives to Drupal. I Keep Choosing Drupal. Here Is the Actual Reasoning.

I Keep Evaluating Alternatives to Drupal. I Keep Choosing Drupal. Here Is the Actual Reasoning.

 

Why I Bother Looking at All

There is a failure mode among experienced developers where they defend their stack because switching would invalidate years of accumulated expertise. The sunk cost is real and the bias is real. The antidote is to take the alternatives seriously when the opportunity comes, build something real with them, and see whether they have caught up.

So when a project's requirements actually push me toward another tool, or when I am curious enough about a new one to spend real time on it, I do exactly that. I read the docs properly. I build a non-trivial prototype. I model a real content structure, not a blog with three fields. I look at what production would actually require. Then I compare honestly.

This post is the result of those evaluations. It is not a Drupal sales pitch. It is the reasoning of someone who has genuinely used the alternatives and keeps finding that, for the work I do, the decision still holds.

Where the Alternatives Are Genuinely Better

Let me start here, because a post that only praises Drupal is not credible.

The modern headless stacks are genuinely better at greenfield speed. If I am starting a small-to-medium project with a clean content model and a React frontend, Sanity or Payload will get me to a working state faster than Drupal will. The developer experience is smoother. The frontend integration is more natural. The mental overhead is lower. For a certain class of project, they are simply the better choice, and I have recommended them when that was the case.

Custom Next.js builds give you total control. No framework opinions to fight. No contrib modules to maintain. For a team with strong frontend engineers and a genuinely unusual set of requirements, building from scratch can be the right call.

These are real advantages. I am not going to pretend otherwise. If your project is greenfield, your content model is simple, and your team is React-native, the alternatives deserve serious consideration and might win.

Where They Keep Falling Short

Here is the pattern I keep hitting. The alternatives are excellent at greenfield and start to strain the moment the content model gets genuinely complex.

A blog with posts and authors is easy in any of these tools. A content structure with deeply nested relationships, polymorphic references, conditional fields, revision workflows across content types, and the kind of editorial complexity that real enterprise content demands is where the headless tools start showing their age, and where Drupal's entity and field system pulls ahead.

This is the single most consistent finding across every round of re-evaluation I have done. The tools that win the demo lose the complex content model. Drupal that loses the demo wins the complex content model. And in the kind of work I do, the content model is almost always complex.

The Four Reasons I Keep Choosing Drupal

When I strip away the noise, four things keep Drupal as my default for the work I actually do.

1. The content modeling is genuinely better

Drupal's entity and field system is the best content modeling foundation I have worked with, and I have worked with most of them. The ability to define content types with arbitrary fields, reference entities polymorphically, attach fields to anything, build view modes for different rendering contexts, and have all of it integrate cleanly with revisions, translations, and access control is not matched by the headless alternatives.

The headless tools model content as documents with schemas. That works beautifully until your content is not really document-shaped. Drupal models content as entities in a relational graph, which is harder to learn and more powerful when the structure gets complex. For the content I work with, that power is the difference between a clean implementation and a pile of workarounds.

2. Long-term maintenance and stability

I have Drupal sites I built years ago that still run, still update, still get security patches, and still make sense to a developer opening the codebase for the first time. The upgrade path from Drupal 8 forward has been genuinely good, and the project takes backward compatibility and security seriously in a way that matters when you are responsible for a site over years rather than months.

The headless ecosystem moves faster, which is exciting and also exhausting. Tools get acquired, change pricing, deprecate APIs, or simply lose momentum. Betting a long-lived enterprise site on a venture-funded SaaS CMS means betting on that company's roadmap and survival. Drupal is not going to get acquired and pivot. That stability has real value when the site needs to live for a decade.

3. Ecosystem and community depth

Twenty years of contrib modules, documentation, Stack Exchange answers, and accumulated community knowledge is a moat that is easy to undervalue until you need it. When I hit an unusual problem in Drupal, someone has almost certainly hit it before and written about it. The depth of the ecosystem means most problems are solved problems.

The newer tools have enthusiastic communities, but they do not have twenty years of accumulated edge-case solutions. When you hit the unusual problem in a younger ecosystem, you are often the first one there, which means you are solving it from scratch.

4. Migration and enterprise-scale capability

Drupal's Migrate API and its broader enterprise tooling (multilingual, workflow, content moderation, granular permissions, multisite) are built for the scale and complexity that enterprise content operations actually have. I have migrated large, messy, legacy content estates into Drupal, and the tooling for that work is mature in a way the alternatives have not matched.

When a project involves moving hundreds of thousands of pieces of content from a legacy system, with all the data-cleaning and field-mapping and URL-preservation that entails, Drupal has the tools and the patterns. Most of the alternatives assume you are starting fresh, because greenfield is where they shine.

What This Means in Practice

The honest synthesis is this. Drupal is not the right answer for every project, and I do not pretend it is. For greenfield projects with simple content models and React-native teams, the alternatives are often better and I will say so.

But for the work I actually do, which involves complex content models, enterprise requirements, long-lived sites, and frequently the migration of large legacy content estates, Drupal keeps winning the evaluation. Not because I am attached to it. Because every time I take the alternatives seriously and build something real with them, I hit the same wall: they are excellent until the content model gets hard, and then Drupal pulls ahead.

The decision is not "Drupal is best." The decision is "Drupal is best for this kind of work," and the kind of work I do keeps being that kind.

Closing Thought

The reason I stay aware of the alternatives is that the day one of them closes the gap on complex content modeling, long-term stability, and enterprise migration, I want to know about it before my competitors do. So far that day has not come. The headless tools keep getting better at the things they were already good at, and keep not solving the things Drupal is good at.

Maybe that changes. Maybe Payload or whatever comes next builds a content modeling system that matches Drupal's entity API while keeping the modern developer experience. If it does, I will notice, because I pay attention. Until then, the choice keeps making itself.

If you have moved from Drupal to one of the alternatives and it held up on a genuinely complex content model, I would be curious to hear about it. That is the case I keep expecting to find and keep not finding, and I would rather learn it from you than from losing a project.

Salsa Digital: Defence Housing Australia — new GovCMS SaaS CivicTheme website

Overview Defence Housing Australia’s challenge The Defence Housing Australia website was on Sitefinity CMS, a proprietary content management system that was approaching end-of-life (EOL). DHA wanted to rebuild its website on the GovCMS SaaS platform, within a tight time frame of only 9-12 weeks to ensure that the replatforming was done prior to the EOL date. Defence Housing Australia’s transformation Salsa Digital started with an assessment to ensure GovCMS SaaS and CivicTheme would meet DHA’s needs. As part of the assessment (and in preparation for the content migration) Salsa mapped the existing content structures to CivicTheme. The mapping became a key input to the Figma designs, platform configuration and content uplift. read more

The Drop Times: Ecosystem Governance, Infrastructure Funding, and Core Readiness

Governance, infrastructure funding, and release maintenance define this week’s Editor’s Pick as the Drupal Association keeps self-nominations open for its 2026 At-Large Board Election and introduces the Drupal Sustaining Members Program. The updates connect elected representation, recurring support for shared project infrastructure, security remediation, and final testing for Drupal 11.4.0-rc2.

The election will fill one community-elected seat on the Drupal Association Board. The seat opens as Alejandro Moreno completes their 2024–2026 term. Candidates must self-nominate, and nominations close on 30 June 2026 at 23:59 UTC.

Candidates will be announced on 7 July 2026. The Get to Know the Candidates period runs from 7 July to 21 July 2026, followed by voting from 22 July 2026 at 00:00 UTC to 14 August 2026 at 23:59 UTC. The new board member will be announced on 26 August 2026.

Voting eligibility depends on individual Drupal Association membership. Members must have an active membership by 21 July 2026 at 00:00 UTC, at least 24 hours before voting opens. The schedule gives prospective candidates and voters clear deadlines for participation before the election enters its voting phase.

The Drupal Sustaining Members Program creates a recurring funding path for organisations that depend on Drupal. The association says contributions support Drupal.org, code repositories, software packaging and distribution, the Composer package endpoint, issue tracking, contribution workflows, continuous integration and testing, Automated Updates, Project Browser infrastructure, and security response systems. The programme frames shared infrastructure as an operational responsibility rather than an incidental benefit of open-source use.

The programme follows Acquia’s Fair Trade Initiative, which directs 2% of eligible Acquia partner Drupal deals to the Drupal Association. Together, the two efforts point to a more predictable funding model for infrastructure used across the Drupal ecosystem.

Maintainers should also review Drupal security advisories published on 17 June 2026. The Drupal core advisories cover improper validation, server-side request forgery, cache poisoning and open redirect, a gadget chain, and PHP object injection. Contributed project advisories were also published for Plotly.js Graphing, Flag attendance field, and Formatter Field.

Drupal 11.4.0-rc2 is available for final testing ahead of the Drupal 11.4.0 stable release window. Release candidates are not supported for production sites, but they allow developers, maintainers, translators, and site builders to test compatibility before the stable release. Sites using Media oEmbed URL discovery may also need to review media_oembed_discovery_trusted_host_patterns in settings.php.

Drupal 11.4.x will receive security support until June 2027. Drupal 11.3.x will continue to receive security support until December 2026. Those support windows give site owners a near-term basis for upgrade and maintenance planning.

The DropTimes also held its June Open Townhall as part of its monthly community coordination format. The session covered editorial updates, contributor coordination, community feedback, and coverage planning. It reflects TDT’s continuing effort to align editorial priorities with Drupal community activity and reader input.

Upcoming Drupal events include DrupalCamp Tokyo 2026 on 27 June 2026 in Tokyo, DrupalCamp Kortrijk 2026 from 29 June to 30 June 2026 in Kortrijk, Drupal Camp Asheville 2026 from 10 July to 12 July 2026 in Asheville, and Decoupled Days 2026 from 6 August to 7 August 2026 in Montréal.

The week’s updates place governance, funding, security, release readiness, editorial coordination, and community participation in the same frame. Community members considering board service can review the election process before nominations close. Organisations that rely on Drupal can assess whether recurring infrastructure support fits their open source contribution model.

Additional developments from across the Drupal ecosystem were published during the week. Readers can follow The Drop Times on LinkedIn, Twitter, Bluesky, and Facebook for ongoing updates. The publication is also active on Drupal Slack in the #thedroptimes channel.

The Drop Times: Ahead of DrupalCamp Tokyo 2026, James Abrahams Outlines Priorities for Drupal AI

Provider costs, agent behaviour and multilingual support are becoming practical governance questions for Drupal sites adopting AI workflows. In written responses facilitated by the DrupalCamp Tokyo 2026 organisers, James Abrahams told The DropTimes that Drupal AI is relying on pluggable governance, Drupal CMS-aligned work, outside-in agent workflows and collaboration with Symfony AI. His answers frame Drupal’s AI direction around maintainability, structured site building and multilingual production readiness rather than isolated feature development. read more

DDEV Blog: DDEV June 2026: Support experience determines DDEV's future, Upsun transfers DDEV trademarks

We Love To Hear Your Support Questions!

As you know and have experienced personally, AI has been replacing human interaction in support situations, and in some cases doing a decent job. It generally does a good job with questions about DDEV.

But getting answers to questions is not the only purpose of support. It's also a great way to communicate problems and ambiguities to project maintainers.

We want you to ask us questions! We live for your questions. We miss the fact that you've been absent from Discord, #ddev in Drupal Slack, and the issue queue. When you ask, it helps us to understand what your struggles are and how DDEV can get better. DDEV's strength has always been the community's willingness to engage and share their needs and frictions and hopes for the project.

As you know, Stack Overflow has been displaced by AI. There aren't new answers going up there, because people use the AI answers and don't improve anything for the future. But DDEV is not static and its future depends on you and your needs. If we don't hear you ask about those, we can't react to your experience.

Web Wash: Getting Started with Views in Drupal CMS

Views is one of the most important modules in Drupal. After the field system, it is the tool you reach for most often as a site builder. You use it to build content listings, create blocks, power admin screens, and feed components into Drupal Canvas.

In the video above, you’ll learn how to build a Views page, customize fields with image styles and rewrite tokens, expose filters and sorts, configure pagers and infinite scroll, expose a view block as a Canvas component, and create a backend admin page.

#! code: LocalGov Drupal Camp 2026

LocalGov Drupal Camp 2026

LocalGov Drupal Camp 2026 was held on 11th and 12th June in the city of Sheffield in the north of England. I drove over the Pennines from my home in Cheshire to attend the camp for the two days.

LocalGov Drupal, in case you weren't aware, is a Drupal distribution that is set up in a way that makes it easy for councils to publish their content. Since it's built on Drupal the sites can also make use of the many Drupal modules available. There are also lots of additional LocalGov Drupal modules that integrate with waste collection systems, bus timetables, election results, and many more.

Last year, LocalGov Drupal was being used by 57 council websites across the UK. This year, that figure has jumped to 73! A fantastic achievement, with that number only set to get bigger.

The camp itself consisted of a Wednesday night social night, a day of talks and other sessions, followed by a day of workshops and sprints.

Wednesday Night

The social on Wednesday night was held at the National Videogame Museum in Sheffield city centre. On entry we got a couple of free drinks, and there was plenty of pizza to go around (perhaps too much pizza!).

This was amazing venue to have a social! After spending a while catching up and chatting with lots people we went into the museum itself and played some games for a while. 4 player Pacman and Ultimate Chicken Horse were particular favourites from the evening.

Webpro Company blog: Drupal 7 Migration Statistics in 2026: What the Numbers Really Mean

A Drupal 7 migration in 2026 should not be treated as a simple technical upgrade. The statistics point to a wider operational risk that requires audit work, budgeting, content migration planning, and editorial interface decisions. Drupal 7 Has Not Disappeared, Even Though Official Support Has Ended Official security and compatibility support for Drupal 7 ended on 5 January 2025. Drupal.org explains on its Drupal 7 End of Life page that Drupal 7 no longer receives regular community security or compatibility updates after that date. In 2026, the question is no longer whether Drupal 7 will reach end of life. It already has. Public usage data still shows that many websites have not yet moved to a newer Drupal version or another platform. According to Drupal.org usage statistics, more than… read more

Webpro Company blog: Drupal vs Headless CMS: which approach fits a large organization's digital platform?

When an organization plans a new digital platform or modernizes an existing Drupal website, the discussion often turns to one question: should Drupal be used as a full content management and web platform, or should the organization move toward a headless CMS model? The right answer depends less on the trend and more on how content, services, users and administration work in practice. Drupal vs Headless CMS: which approach fits a large organization's digital platform?

The Drop Times: Robert Menetray Builds DruScan to Simplify Drupal Audits

Inherited Drupal sites often leave teams with scattered checks, uncertain configuration, and limited visibility beyond the repository. Robert Menetray Caballero built DruScan from freelance audit scripts into a contributed module and optional dashboard that reviews configuration, logs, module updates, code quality, security-related signals, and score history. The tool’s privacy boundary is central: detailed reports remain inside the local Drupal environment, while DruScan receives only the data needed for cross-site monitoring, keeping it as an oversight aid rather than a replacement for Drupal judgement. read more

Aten Design Group: Search Across Multiple Drupal Sites with Pantheon SOLR

Search Across Multiple Drupal Sites with Pantheon SOLR
Joel Steidl Drupal

Search feels like a solved problem. Until you're managing a network of Drupal sites and your users expect to find content regardless of which one it lives on, that is. At that point, the question stops being "how do we add search?" and starts being "how do we build a unified search experience across an entire digital ecosystem?"

The obvious workaround is to bring in a third-party Solr provider. That works, but it means another vendor, another bill, and another service to monitor and secure. For organizations already invested in Pantheon's managed infrastructure, it further fragments the operational footprint rather than simplifying it.

At Aten, this challenge comes up regularly with clients running multi-site Drupal architectures on Pantheon. The solution we've landed on keeps everything within the platform, using four contributed modules working together as a hub-and-spoke proxy. This post walks through the architecture, why it exists, and how to implement it.

The Constraint You Can't Route Around

Pantheon's managed Solr is excellent: zero server administration, mTLS-secured connections, schema management handled through a purpose-built API. But it comes with a hard platform constraint: each Drupal site environment gets exactly one Solr core, and that core is network-isolated to that environment.

There is no platform mechanism to point a second Drupal site at another site's Solr instance. Each site can only talk to its own.

This is a reasonable security tradeoff for single-site use. But for a multi-site architecture where you need a single search index spanning many sites, it forces you to think architecturally rather than just reach for a configuration option.

The Architecture: One Hub, Many Clients

The solution is a hub-and-spoke proxy. One Drupal site (the hub) owns the Solr core and exposes it to other sites over authenticated HTTP. Every other site (the clients) routes its search queries through the hub instead of connecting to Solr directly.

From Pantheon's perspective, only the hub ever touches Solr. The constraint is satisfied. From Search API's perspective, every client is talking to a Solr instance in the normal way. The architecture sits between those two layers.

Four contributed modules make this work:

ModuleInstalled onRole
search_api_pantheonHubConnects to Pantheon Solr via env vars and mTLS
pantheon_solr_apiHubExposes Solr to authenticated clients via HTTP proxy
search_api_solr_proxyEach clientAbstract proxy base; no direct configuration
search_api_solr_proxy_pantheon_connectorEach clientRoutes queries through hub; manages API key via Key module

What Each Module Does

Hub: search_api_pantheon

This is the only module in the stack that speaks directly to Pantheon's Solr. It extends Search API Solr's standard connector and replaces the typical admin configuration form with auto-discovered values from Pantheon's environment variables (PANTHEON_INDEX_HOST, PANTHEON_INDEX_PORT, PANTHEON_INDEX_CORE, and others). On Pantheon environments, those fields are disabled in the UI; the platform owns them.

For transport, it swaps in a custom cURL adapter that uses the mTLS certificate Pantheon provisions at ~/certs/binding.pem. Schema uploads and core reloads go through Pantheon's proprietary endpoints rather than the standard Solr APIs.

Hub: pantheon_solr_api

This module is what actually opens the hub's Solr to the outside world. It exposes a set of Drupal routes at /solr-proxy/{action} that authenticated client sites can POST and GET against, and a standalone PHP file at /pantheon-solr-proxy.php for high-performance SELECT queries (more on that below).

Every request is validated against a shared API key before it reaches Solr. The key is read from a configured Key module entity (backed by a Pantheon Secret) and compared using hash_equals(), a timing-safe comparison that prevents key enumeration attacks. Only a hardcoded allowlist of Solr actions (select, update, update/json, admin/ping, admin/luke, config, and a handful of others) will be forwarded. Anything outside that list returns a 403.

Client registrations are tracked in Drupal config, keyed by the combination of each site's Search API site hash and index ID, the same namespace Search API Solr uses internally to scope documents.

Client: search_api_solr_proxy + search_api_solr_proxy_pantheon_connector

search_api_solr_proxy is a framework-only module. It provides the abstract SolrProxyConnectorBase class but is not useful on its own. search_api_solr_proxy_pantheon_connector is the Pantheon-specific implementation.

On each client site, the connector replaces the standard Search API server configuration (host, port, path, core) with a single hub_url field. A Guzzle middleware stack handles two things:

  1. Auth injection: every outbound request gets an X-Pantheon-Solr-Key header carrying the API key from the Key module entity.
  2. URL rewriting: SELECT queries are redirected to /pantheon-solr-proxy.php on the hub; everything else routes to /solr-proxy/{action} through Drupal.

Because client sites never manage the Solr schema directly, skip_schema_check is permanently enabled. The connector also auto-detects the Solr version by querying the hub's admin/system endpoint, falling back to 8.11.4 (Pantheon's current managed version) if the endpoint is unreachable.

How a Search Query Actually Travels

Here is the path of a typical user search on a client site:

  1. Search API builds a Solr SELECT query.
  2. The connector's Guzzle middleware intercepts it, adds the X-Pantheon-Solr-Key header, and rewrites the URL to https://hub.example.com/pantheon-solr-proxy.php?....
  3. The request arrives at the hub's web root. pantheon-solr-proxy.php runs as a standalone PHP script with no Drupal bootstrap. It validates the API key, constructs the Solr URL from Pantheon environment variables, and forwards the request using the mTLS certificate.
  4. Solr responds. The script returns the raw JSON response directly.
  5. Search API processes the results on the client site.

SELECT queries bypass Drupal's bootstrap entirely. On a warm server, the round trip through the proxy adds approximately 5ms of overhead. Writes, admin actions, and schema operations go through the Drupal controller instead, which adds around 150ms. That's acceptable for infrequent operations.

Getting It Set Up

On the hub site

composer require drupal/search_api_pantheon drupal/pantheon_solr_api
drush en search_api_pantheon pantheon_solr_api

Navigate to Administration > Configuration > Search and metadata > Pantheon Solr API. Select or create a Key entity pointing to the PANTHEON_SOLR_API_KEY Pantheon Secret. This is the shared key your client sites will use to authenticate.

Copy pantheon-solr-proxy.php (provided by pantheon_solr_api) to your hub site's web root. This is the fast-path script for SELECT queries.

On each client site

composer require drupal/search_api drupal/search_api_solr drupal/search_api_solr_proxy
drush en search_api search_api_solr search_api_solr_proxy_pantheon_connector

Create a Search API server using the Pantheon Solr Proxy connector. Set the Hub URL to your hub site's base URL. Configure the Key entity to use the same PANTHEON_SOLR_API_KEY secret.

Create your Search API index on that server as you normally would, with any entity types, fields, and processors you need.

Then run the registration command:

drush pantheon-solr-proxy:register

This command auto-discovers your Search API server and index, reads the site hash and index ID that Search API Solr uses to namespace your documents, and POSTs that registration to the hub. Back on the hub, run:

drush pantheon-solr-api:update-index

Repeat the client-side steps for each site in your network.

A Few Things Worth Knowing

Schema management stays on the hub. Only the hub ever uploads schema files to Pantheon. Client sites have skip_schema_check forced on. If your search requirements across sites are different enough to require separate schemas, this architecture assumes you can reconcile them into a single configset. In practice, the search_api_solr jump-start configset handles most requirements.

Document namespacing is automatic. Search API Solr already scopes every indexed document with a per-site hash and index ID prefix. Each client site's documents live in separate namespaces within the same Solr core. Cross-site queries need to either search all namespaces or be scoped deliberately; your Views or custom query code controls this.

The API key is a Pantheon Secret, not a config value. Keys stored in pantheon_solr_api.settings Drupal config hold a reference to a Key module entity, not the raw key. The actual secret is resolved at runtime from PANTHEON_SOLR_API_KEY. This keeps credentials out of your config exports and codebase.

Building Across Site Boundaries

Unified search across a multi-site Drupal architecture is one of those problems that looks straightforward until you try to implement it on a managed platform. Pantheon's security model solves a lot of problems, but it introduces constraints that require a deliberate architectural response.

The hub-and-spoke proxy described here is that response. It works within the platform's model, keeps credentials out of the codebase, and adds minimal latency to the critical read path.

If you're building a multi-site Drupal ecosystem and working through the hard architectural questions around search, shared data, and cross-site workflows, get in touch with the Aten team. This is the kind of problem we solve.

Centarro: The Difference Between B2B and B2C eCommerce

B2C eCommerce usually gets all the attention, because that’s what most people engage with. They buy stuff from Amazon, Etsy, or a Shopify store without thinking too much about it. The customer comes to the website and makes a purchase. Usually, there is a portal to track the order and some transactional emails for updates, and finally, the package is delivered to their door. If they bought from a company that has its act together, they might spend the next 3-6 months being remarketed to because the company really wants to make this customer a repeat customer. 

But this B2C eCommerce experience, while ubiquitous and recognizable to most, is only scratching the surface.

The scale of B2B commerce is actually much larger than its B2C cousin. The global B2B eCommerce market is expected to reach roughly $37 trillion in 2026, approximately six times the size of the global B2C market. Yet despite that enormous footprint, B2B digital commerce remains far less mature than its B2C counterpart. Software that serves the latter doesn’t work for the former. The differences between B2B and B2C commerce run deep, from how deals get made to how orders get shipped to how platforms are architected. Different customers. Different requirements. Different expectations. To add further complications, businesses increasingly need to operate in both worlds simultaneously.

Drupal AI 1.4.0: Unveiling Extensibility, Enterprise Resilience, and Advanced Guardrails

Just two months after the milestone release of Drupal AI 1.3.0, we are thrilled to announce that Drupal AI 1.4.0 is officially here!

With the 1.x branch reaching a high level of maturity and stability, we are excited to transition into a more predictable, bi-monthly minor release cadence. Moving forward, the Drupal community can look forward to a steady, reliable stream of improvements, new integrations, and expanded platform capabilities.

Drupal AI 1.4.0 represents a major evolutionary step, focusing heavily on extensibility, scalability, normalization, and preparing the broader ecosystem for the next generation of AI-powered digital experiences.

Let's dive into what's new in this release.

1. A Highly Extensible AI Ecosystem for Developers

One of our primary themes for 1.4.0 is giving contributed module developers the tools they need to extend and enrich Drupal AI. We want to make extending this module as seamless as writing a simple prompt.

Markdown Editor Extensibility

Contrib modules can now extend the markdown editor experience directly. The newly available Document Loader integration, for example, allows content creators to load content from virtually any document type directly into their editor workflow.

This architectural improvement opens the door for the community to build richer editor experiences and provider-specific tooling without requiring any modifications to Drupal AI core.

New "Skills" and Drush Generate Commands

To radically accelerate development speed and reduce boilerplate code, we are introducing both AI "skills" and drush generate commands that allow developers to rapidly generate:

  • AI Providers
  • AI Automator Types and Rules
  • AI Guardrails
  • Field Widget Actions
  • Operation Types
  • AI API Explorers
  • Function Calls
  • Function Groups

For teams utilizing coding agents or AI-assisted development workflows, these new skills can automatically generate integrations that strictly follow Drupal AI best practices—saving hours of development time.

2. Chat Normalization Across Processors


Image showcasing Slack Chat Processor together with the Webform Agent.

One of the most significant architectural milestones in 1.4.0 is the introduction of normalization for chat systems - an abstraction layer that decouples chat interfaces from their underlying AI processors, so integrations are no longer tightly bound to specific implementations.

This opens the door to immediate, practical use cases: the newly introduced Slack Chat processor lets team members communicate with Drupal AI agents directly through Slack.

More broadly, it lays the groundwork for the upcoming AI Agents processor release and makes it significantly easier to build, package, and reuse conversational, multi-channel AI experiences across providers and platforms.

3. AI Automators + Views Bulk Operations

Handling content at scale is one of Drupal's core strengths, and in 1.4.0 we are supercharging this capability. AI Automators can now execute any configured rule or AI type directly as a Views Bulk Operation (VBO).

This integration unleashes massive efficiency gains for content editors and site administrators. Instead of running AI operations page-by-page, teams can trigger complex, AI-driven workflows across hundreds or thousands of entities simultaneously.

Site builders can now configure Views to bulk-execute tasks such as:

  • Automated Image Alt Text Generation for media libraries.
  • Bulk Summarization of newly migrated archival content.
  • Large-scale Classification and Tagging for taxonomies.
  • Batch Translation of product descriptions or documentation.
  • Custom AI-powered Editorial Workflows tailored to your specific business logic.

This is a massive usability win for teams responsible for maintaining and optimizing large, enterprise-scale content repositories.

4. Strengthening Drupal AI for Enterprise Reliability

Enterprise-grade operations demand high availability. Drupal AI 1.4.0 lays the crucial architectural groundwork for robust failover and redundancy support across your entire AI stack.

The module's architecture is now fully equipped to handle advanced failover processes. In the near future, site builders will be able to use powerful tools like ECA (Events, Conditions, Actions) to configure custom AI routing logic, unlocking enterprise-ready scenarios, such as:

  • Automatic Failover: Instantly routing requests to a backup provider if your primary provider experiences an outage.
  • Smart Routing: Directing AI queries based on real-time cost or latency metrics.
  • Content-Type Routing: Using different LLM providers depending on the complexity of the content type.
  • Custom Pipelines: Applying specialized response-handling pipelines to clean or format data on the fly.

This represents a significant step toward securing permanent, enterprise-grade reliability for AI in Drupal.

5. Advanced Guardrails and Real-Time Security

The guardrails feature introduced in 1.3.0 has received a massive upgrade in this release, making Drupal AI safer and more production-ready for large-scale, public-facing deployments.

In 1.4.0, guardrails can now:

  • Be Configured Globally: Apply safety and policy checks automatically across all outgoing and incoming requests.
  • Protect Real-Time Streaming: Enforce guardrails on streaming responses in real time, preventing unsafe content from reaching the user mid-generation.
  • Limit Input Length: Enforce strict prompt length limitations.

The input length limit is a vital security layer designed to prevent "denial-of-wallet" attacks, where malicious actors attempt to spike your API costs by sending exceptionally large, resource-intensive prompts to your providers.
Furthermore, our new real-time streaming guardrails represent a unique solution that very few AI frameworks—and virtually no other CMS platforms—can offer out of the box.

Get Started with 1.4.0 Today!

Ultimately, Drupal AI 1.4.0 is less about flashy UI features and more about strengthening our platform's foundational architecture for the future.

With normalized chat interfaces, failover-ready systems, hardened security guardrails, deep VBO integrations, and stateful provider capabilities, this release solidifies Drupal AI as a more reliable, more extensible, and more enterprise-ready platform — built for the open web.

Update your modules, explore the new Drush generators, test out the Slack integrations, and let us know what you build!

How Southwark Council uses AI and open source software to transform PDF Publishing in Drupal

Hear directly from the team behind an award-winning AI solution built for local government. What does genuinely useful AI in public services look like? Not a concept, not a pilot, but a working solution that saves hours of manual work, improves accessibility, and puts better content in front of citizens faster. Southwark Council's AI-powered PDF importer for Drupal is exactly that, and it won the prestigious Digital Leaders AI Impact Award 2026. Host: James Hall, Product Lead for Websites at Everyone TV Guest: Angie Forson, Web and Digital Program Lead at Southwark Council Download LocalGov Publications Importer: https://www.drupal.org/project/localgov_publications_importer Learn more about Drupal AI: https://www.drupal.org/ai More about the problem solved Manual PDF conversion has long been one of the most time-consuming tasks facing council web teams. Converting a single document can take hours. Multiply that across thousands of PDFs and the burden becomes significant, both in staff time and in the delay it creates before citizens can access accurate, accessible information. The Southwark team, working with their partners at Chicken, built an AI-powered importer for the LocalGov Drupal Publication Module that reduces that process to minutes, often under one minute. How it works Each PDF passes through a three-step pipeline: Extract - a PDF parser pulls the raw content from the document Transform - AI converts it to properly structured, accessible HTML with logical pagination Save - clean HTML pages are ready to review and publish directly in Drupal The result is an HTML representation of the PDF content, saved into a Drupal Publication and ready for review before going live. Every import is logged, so errors can be identified and resolved efficiently. The module uses a plugin architecture, meaning each step in the pipeline can be swapped out. Councils can use different extractors, AI models, or output to different Drupal content types, making the solution adaptable to a wide range of content and operational requirements. Built the right way The team delivered this project with an agile, user-centred approach, continuously refining requirements to ensure the tool meets real user needs rather than simply ticking a technical specification. "This project is a great example of AI working alongside and empowering content creators, and Drupal as a platform supports this really well." - Farez Rahman, Drupal Developer "I'm excited about the impact this product will have, not just for our users, but also in transforming how we design, build, and create content internally.

The Drop Times: Jorge Tutor’s CKEditor5 Markdown Module Gives Drupal Editors a Controlled Paste Path

Markdown has become a practical drafting format for Drupal teams working across notes apps, code editors, documentation systems, and AI-assisted writing tools. Jorge Tutor’s CKEditor5 Markdown module addresses the handoff into Drupal by converting pasted Markdown through an explicit editor dialog, then letting CKEditor5 enforce the active text format’s HTML rules. In written responses to The DropTimes, Tutor framed the module as a narrow fix for teams that want Markdown during drafting but not as the stored or rendered content format. read more

Webpro Company blog: Drupal admin interface as an editorial workbench

Drupal is a strong platform for complex digital services, but its long-term value depends on how well people can use it every day. The admin interface should support the editorial team, not slow it down. The admin interface is part of service quality Public-facing user experience usually receives most of the attention. That is understandable. Visitors, residents, students, customers or partners see the public website first. But there is another important user group: the people who create, update, translate, review, publish and archive content. When their work happens in a slow or confusing admin interface, the impact appears quickly: content is updated less often; errors remain visible for longer; editors need more support; developers are asked to handle changes the content team should… read more

Webpro Company blog: Drupal CMS 1 to Drupal CMS 2 upgrade

Drupal CMS 2.0 brings a new starting point, Canvas and site templates, but an existing site created from Drupal CMS 1 does not automatically become the same thing. Before changing it, you need to understand what the site actually uses. Drupal CMS 2.0 raises an obvious question: if a site started from Drupal CMS 1, can it simply be upgraded to Drupal CMS 2? The short answer: carefully. Drupal CMS is not a product version in the same sense as a Drupal Core major version. The Drupal CMS project page describes it as a starting point for new sites. Once a site has been created, what you have is a Drupal site with selected modules, configuration and content. That means Drupal CMS 1 to 2 should not be treated as just a Composer command. It should be treated as a technical change to an… read more

Webpro Company blog: Drupal CMS 2.0 and Canvas in a client project

Drupal CMS 2.0 promises a faster start, visual page building and AI-assisted workflows. In a client project, the important question is not only how good the demo looks, but how the solution behaves two years later. Drupal CMS 2.0 was released on 28 January 2026. Its main themes are Canvas, AI tools and site templates. Drupal.org describes it as a way for marketing teams to launch branded sites faster. This is an important shift for Drupal. Drupal has long been strong for complex systems, but getting started has often required more technical work than simpler CMS products. Drupal CMS is an attempt to reduce that friction. What changed in Drupal CMS 2.0? Drupal CMS 2.0 is not a separate technology branch. It is still Drupal, but with a new starting point. The main changes include: Canvas… read more

DrupalCon News & Updates: Why DrupalCon Rotterdam Is Worth Attending

DrupalCon Rotterdam is one of those events that naturally attracts attention across the Drupal ecosystem. Not only because it brings the community together, but because it creates a space where technology, strategy, contribution and real-world digital projects meet.

For anyone working with Drupal, open source or digital experience platforms, the question is not just “what happens at DrupalCon?”, but it might be: “If you have never been before, why should this be the year to go?”

Why Rotterdam?

Rotterdam feels like a strong fit for an event like DrupalCon. It is a city known for innovation, architecture, international connections and a forward-looking mindset — qualities that align naturally with the spirit of the Drupal community.

Bringing DrupalCon to Rotterdam creates an opportunity to connect the European Drupal community in a dynamic and accessible setting. It also gives professionals from different markets the chance to meet, exchange perspectives and discuss how Drupal continues to evolve in a fast-changing digital landscape.


Learning from real experience

One of the strongest reasons to attend DrupalCon is the quality of the knowledge shared by the community.

This is not only about product updates or technical presentations, It is about learning from people who are building, maintaining and improving digital platforms in real contexts, often with complex requirements, long-term governance needs and ambitious user experience goals.

From technical sessions to strategic case studies, DrupalCon gives attendees access to practical insight that is difficult to get from documentation alone.


Meeting the community behind Drupal

Drupal has always been more than a content management system; It is an open-source project supported by a global network of contributors, companies and professionals.

For someone who has never attended before, this is one of the most compelling reasons to go: Online discussions, issue queues and documentation are valuable, but meeting people face to face adds a different layer to the experience.

Conversations during sessions, between talks or at community events can lead to new ideas, partnerships and a better understanding of how others approach similar challenges.

Inspiration beyond the technical track

DrupalCon is also a place to see what organisations are doing with Drupal today.

Real-world examples often show the platform’s value more clearly than feature lists. They reveal how Drupal is being used to support public sector platforms, media websites, higher education, enterprise ecosystems, multilingual content, accessibility requirements and complex editorial workflows.

That is why DrupalCon is relevant beyond development, project managers, designers, UX professionals, marketers, content teams and business leaders can all find useful perspectives on delivery, governance, accessibility, platform strategy and the role of open source in long-term digital transformation.


Why attend for the first time?

Attending DrupalCon for the first time is a way to move from observing the community to being part of it.

It is an opportunity to learn from experienced professionals, understand the direction of the platform, discover practical use cases and build connections that can continue long after the event ends.

DrupalCon Rotterdam represents more than another event in the digital calendar, It is a chance to understand Drupal through the people and projects that keep it moving forward.

For a first-time attendee, that may be the strongest reason to go. 

Because sometimes the best way to understand the value of a community is not to read about it from the outside. It is to be in the room where that community comes together.

Security advisories: Drupal core - Moderately critical - Improper validation - SA-CORE-2026-009

Project: 
Date: 
2026-June-17
Vulnerability: 
Improper validation
Affected versions: 
<10.5.12 || >=10.6.0 <10.6.11 || >=11.2.0 <11.2.14 || >=11.3.0 <11.3.12 || 11.0.* || 11.1.*
CVE IDs: 
CVE-2026-55808
Description: 

The JSON:API and REST modules allow you to upload image files to image fields.

The validation rules check the file extension of the uploaded file but not the file MIME type. This may allow a malicious user to upload a file that is not an image.

Certain web-server configurations may serve the uploaded file with its actual MIME type rather than an image type. This may lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) or other unexpected behavior.

Solution: 

Install the latest version:

Drupal 11

Drupal 10

Drupal 11.1.x, Drupal 11.0.x, Drupal 10.4.x, and below are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage. (Drupal 8 and Drupal 9 have both reached end-of-life.)

Security advisories: Drupal core - Moderately critical - Server-side request forgery - SA-CORE-2026-008

Project: 
Date: 
2026-June-17
Vulnerability: 
Server-side request forgery
Affected versions: 
<10.5.12 || >=10.6.0 <10.6.11 || >=11.2.0 <11.2.14 || >=11.3.0 <11.3.12 || 11.0.* || 11.1.*
CVE IDs: 
CVE-2026-55807
Description: 

The Media module comes with support for oEmbed. The oEmbed specification contains two discovery mechanisms, via providers.json and via URL discovery.

The URL discovery code could be leveraged to trick Drupal into making server-side requests to any URL.

Solution: 

Install the latest version:

Drupal 11

Drupal 10

Drupal 11.1.x, Drupal 11.0.x, Drupal 10.4.x, and below are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage. (Drupal 8 and Drupal 9 have both reached end-of-life.)

Required site changes for URL discovery

Most users of the oEmbed functionality in Drupal likely use providers.json to define known providers (such as YouTube and Vimeo) for embedding content.

If you are using URL discovery, you now need to set a list of trusted oEmbed discovery hosts in settings.php.

This is an array containing a series of regular expressions for matching host names for discovery. It follows the same pattern as the existing trusted hosts settings.

Example:

// Only allow URL discovery from example.com.
$settings['media_oembed_discovery_trusted_host_patterns'] = [
  '^example\.com$',
];

Security advisories: Drupal core - Moderately critical - Gadget chain - SA-CORE-2026-006

Project: 
Date: 
2026-June-17
Vulnerability: 
Gadget chain
Affected versions: 
<10.5.12 || >=10.6.0 <10.6.11 || >=11.2.0 <11.2.14 || >=11.3.0 <11.3.12 || 11.0.* || 11.1.*
CVE IDs: 
CVE-2026-55804
Description: 

Drupal core contains a chain of methods that could be exploitable when an insecure deserialization vulnerability exists on the site. This so-called "gadget chain" presents no direct threat, but is a vector that can be used to achieve remote code execution or SQL injection if the application deserializes untrusted data due to another vulnerability.

This issue is not directly exploitable.

This issue is mitigated by the fact that in order for it to be exploitable, a separate vulnerability must be present to allow an attacker to pass unsafe input to unserialize().

Solution: 

Install the latest version:

Drupal 11

Drupal 10

Drupal 11.1.x, Drupal 11.0.x, Drupal 10.4.x, and below are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage. (Drupal 8 and Drupal 9 have both reached end-of-life.)

Security advisories: Drupal core - Critical - PHP object injection - SA-CORE-2026-005

Project: 
Date: 
2026-June-17
Vulnerability: 
PHP object injection
Affected versions: 
<10.5.12 || >=10.6.0 <10.6.11 || >=11.2.0 <11.2.14 || >=11.3.0 <11.3.12 || 11.0.* || 11.1.*
CVE IDs: 
CVE-2026-55803
Description: 

SA-CORE-2019-003 added protection for fields that store serialized data to disallow direct writes via web services.

The above fix did not cover all potential attack vectors for JSON:API. An attacker with appropriate JSON:API write permission could potentially inject a malicious payload in certain rare circumstances, potentially resulting in PHP Object Injection.

This vulnerability is mitigated by the fact that in order to be exploitable:

  • A site must use an entity reference field type that stores a serialized property.
  • An attacker must have permission to write to the entity via JSON:API.

No field type shipped with Drupal core meets these criteria, and contributed or user-created field types that do appear to be extremely unusual. This update protects all such fields; no changes are required in contributed modules.

JSON:API is read-only by default, so sites are only affected if they have enabled write access (either through administrator configuration or the installation of a contributed or custom module that enables write access).

Drupal Steward protection:

This issue is being protected by Drupal Steward. In this instance, we believe that the WAF rule will provide mitigation for the common/obvious vulnerability paths, but may not be able to cover all cases or work for all hosting providers. Additionally, several other core security advisories released today are not mitigated by Drupal Steward. Therefore, our recommended action is still to plan an actual Drupal update within 24 hours of this release.

Solution: 

Install the latest version:

Drupal 11

Drupal 10

Drupal 11.1.x, Drupal 11.0.x, Drupal 10.4.x, and below are end-of-life and do not receive security coverage. (Drupal 8 and Drupal 9 have both reached end-of-life.)

The Project Update Bot is refreshed for Drupal 12 readiness with over 80% automated coverage for deprecated APIs

Drupal 12 is coming later this year. As with previous major releases, the contributed ecosystem will require updating for breaking changes . Thousands of modules and themes will need their deprecated API uses updated before they are ready. Doing that by hand, across all of contrib, would cost the community an enormous number of hours.

That is the job the Project Update Bot exists to do. We have refreshed it, and it now targets Drupal 12 readiness: it scans contributed projects automatically and opens issues with patches that fix deprecated API uses for you.

If you are a maintainer, you should already know the bot. For the Drupal 12 cycle, our rector rules grew to cover more than 80% of the deprecated API uses introduced in that release. Using our proven toolset: Gábor Hojtsy's Upgrade Status for the analysis, and Drupal Rector for the fixes, now maintained primarily by SWIS and the glue that puts it all together Project Analysis.

Two things improved this round. Rule coverage is more complete, some of that came from AI-generated rector rules based on Dries Buytaert's drupal-digests. And submodule dependencies are now resolved during analysis. In the earlier cycles we scanned submodules but not their dependencies, which caused failed scans and false errors. That is fixed now, so results are cleaner and considerably more accurate.

Patches arrive as either GitLab or Drupal.org issues. The two work a little differently, and every issue the bot opens explains how to apply the patch, pause the bot, or close it. You stay in control of your project throughout.

If you have questions or want to help, we are in #d12readiness on Drupal Slack. And if a patch looks wrong, tell us so we can fix the rule for everyone, open an issue in the Drupal Rector or project_analysis queue.

The bot builds on a lot of other people's work in Upgrade Status, Drupal Rector and drupal-digests. Thanks also to the maintainers who let us test the refreshed bot on their repositories.

The Stable Triangle: Why AI is the Ultimate Stress Test for Your Business

This blog post summarizes the key insights from the CX Decoded podcast episode featuring Dries Buytaert, the founder of Drupal and Executive Chairman of Acquia.

In the fast-moving world of digital experience, few names carry as much weight as Dries Buytaert. As the creator of Drupal, he has spent over two decades navigating the evolution of the web. But in his latest appearance on the CX Decoded podcast, Dries issued a candid warning: AI isn’t just another tool - it is a fundamental disruption that is stress-testing every business model in its path.

During the conversation, Dries broke down the "Stable Triangle" of open source and explored why the rise of AI is creating a period of both incredible excitement and existential fear.

The Disruption of the "Stable Triangle"

For 20 years, the Drupal ecosystem has relied on three balanced sides:

  1. The Product: The Drupal software itself.
  2. The Ecosystem: The digital agencies that build on the platform.
  3. The Community: The contributors who maintain the code.

AI is currently hitting all three sides simultaneously. It is changing user expectations for what a CMS should do, challenging the hourly-billing model of agencies, and flooding the contributor community with "AI slop."

The Rise of "AI Slop" and the "Can-tribution"

One of the most provocative points Dries made was the distinction between a contribution and a can-tribution.

Because AI lowers the barrier to entry, anyone can now generate a thousand lines of code and submit it to an open-source project. This sounds like a win for innovation, but Dries warns of "AI slop" - low-quality, AI-generated code that lacks context or security rigor. For human maintainers, reviewing this influx of code is exhausting.

The takeaway: Just because you can contribute doesn't mean you should if you don't understand what the AI has produced. Quality and accountability must remain human-led.

Agencies: Moving Beyond the Hour

The agency world is facing a reckoning. If an AI can generate a website or a specific feature in seconds, charging by the hour becomes a race to the bottom.

Dries argues that agencies must evolve. Their value will no longer be in the "writing of code," but in strategic configuration, high-level architecture, and accountability. In an AI world, clients aren't paying for labor; they are paying for a partner who can guarantee that the AI-generated solution actually works, is secure, and achieves business goals.

The Broken Economics of AI Crawling

Dries also touched on the "broken deal" between publishers and AI companies. Currently, AI crawlers extract value from publishers' content to train models, often giving nothing back in return - no traffic, no revenue, and no attribution.

He highlighted a potential shift toward marketplace models (similar to what companies like Cloudflare are exploring) where publishers can set terms for how their data is used. For mid-sized publishers, this might be the only way to survive the "extraction economy."

A Cautionary Tale: The Tailwind Labs Lesson

The podcast concluded with a sobering example: Tailwind Labs. Dries used this as a "canary in the coal mine" for business models. When the thing you sell (like a CSS framework or specific design components) can be perfectly specified and generated by an AI prompt, your original value proposition disappears.

The Final Verdict

Dries’s message to CX leaders and developers is simple: Prototype fast with AI, but build for the long term with a robust CMS. AI is an incredible accelerator for those with expertise, but a dangerous trap for those looking for shortcuts. To survive the stress test, businesses must move away from selling "tasks" and start selling "results and reliability."

The Two Speeds of the Agentic Web: Pragmatism and Community-driven Acceleration

Author and photos: Martin Anderson-Clutz
Originally posted on Acquia.com blog

Enterprise AI is about cost management; Drupal's AI Summit shows community-driven acceleration. Drupal: the best CMS for the agentic web.

Attending a massive tech gathering like apidays New York 2026 provides a fascinating macro-lens view of where our industry is heading. With ten co-located conferences happening simultaneously, the event served as a perfect melting pot for the cross-pollination of ideas across different sectors of software architecture. Yet, while APIs served as the undeniable common thread weaving through nearly every presentation, stepping between the mainstream enterprise tracks and the co-located Drupal AI Summit felt like walking into two entirely different worlds.

The contrast highlighted a critical tension in technology today: the corporate race to manage costs and practical enterprise constraints, versus an open-source community’s agile, collaborative push toward a truly agentic web.

The Enterprise Reality Check: APIs as the New Agent UX

In the main apidays sessions, the initial euphoric hype around generative AI has clearly given way to hard-nosed engineering pragmatism. The prevailing sentiment among enterprise builders boiled down to two foundational rules:

  • If it can be deterministic, keep it deterministic: AI can be an incredible asset, but it should not be the default solution for every problem. If a task can be solved using traditional, deterministic software tools, it absolutely should be, because those solutions remain cheaper, faster, and infinitely more reliable. When AI is required, developers should focus on deploying the minimum effective model necessary for that specific task to avoid wasting resources.
  • APIs are the user interface for AI agents: For a decade, we built APIs for human developers or mobile applications. Today, we are building for autonomous consumers. An AI agent reads API specifications in real-time to execute tasks. If your APIs are poorly documented (suffering from either too much or too little documentation), too numerous per endpoint, or inconsistent in how they respond to queries with incomplete information, AI agents won't try to guess—they will simply abandon your system to look for different tools instead.

While these insights are incredibly valuable for infrastructure stability, the mainstream talks frequently veered toward selling proprietary products rather than exploring open topics, and genuine, collaborative case studies were rare. The most inspiring apidays session that stood completely apart from the product pitches focused on AGTP (Agent Transfer Protocol), presented by Chris Hood of Nomotic. AGTP is a proposed application-layer communication protocol designed to be a peer to commonly used standards like SMTP and HTTP, but architected from the ground up specifically for communication between AI agents. I'll talk more about AGTP more in an upcoming post.

The Open-Source Counterweight: Shifting Focus from Middleware to Marketers

Stepping into the Drupal AI Summit offered a completely different energy, characterized by an optimistic tone and solutions rooted entirely in freely available, open-source tools.


Standing room only at the Drupal AI Summit in New York City

Where the broader enterprise tracks viewed APIs as rigid backend guardrails to keep AI contained, the Drupal tracks explored how these emerging agentic capabilities can transform actual user and author experiences. This was the core focus of my own presentation, "AI-driven DXP: New Horizons for Marketers".

While the enterprise is busy worrying about model optimization, the digital experience platform (DXP) ecosystem is looking at how agentic AI fundamentally redefines how marketing teams create, manage, and orchestrate content. In an AI-driven DXP, the traditional boundaries of content management melt away. Instead of treating the CMS as a passive repository, an ecosystem built on agentic AI allows marketers to deploy autonomous workflows that can intelligently adapt experiences, connect disjointed data sources, and scale personalization without requiring manual engineering oversight.

The summit beautifully balanced these high-level, future-forward visions of marketing horizons with real-world challenges that development teams are solving today.

Real-World Impact Over Slideware

Unlike the abstract trend-decking found elsewhere, the Drupal sessions were rich with actual deployment stories. The sessions demonstrated how the Drupal community is leveraging its enthusiastic embrace of agentic AI to "maintain our edge". A standout example included a highly practical, real-world case study showing how teams are using autonomous AI agents to seamlessly migrate an existing WordPress site into Acquia Source CMS.

The Difference is Striking

In sum, the contrast between the mainstream enterprise tracks and the Drupal AI Summit highlights a significant divergence in the evolution of the agentic web. While the broader industry focuses on cost management and proprietary guardrails, Drupal has found itself as the best CMS for AI. Drupal holds a significant advantage in today's agentic landscape thanks to its mature tooling for structured content, robust enterprise governance features, and an enthusiastic, collaboration-driven community. This unique combination of open-source agility and enterprise-grade architecture ensures that Drupal remains at the forefront of transforming user and author experiences in an AI-driven world.

Acquia’s Fair Trade Initiative: A new model for sustainable Drupal funding

The Drupal Association is responsible for the massive infrastructure that keeps the Drupal ecosystem moving forward. From protecting and upgrading Drupal.org to coordinating global events, managing community programs, and providing resources to our vital Security Team, our work requires reliable funding.

Acquia’s Fair Trade Initiative changes the paradigm by embedding funding directly into the transactional deal flow of the new Acquia Partner Program. When an Acquia partner closes an eligible Drupal deal, 2% of that transaction is automatically directed to the Drupal Association to support our core mission. This ensures a sustainable model that aligns Drupal’s commercial growth with continued investment in its underlying infrastructure.

What makes this model truly exceptional is how it aligns incentives across the board:

  • Funded Completely by Acquia: The 2% contribution is funded entirely out of Acquia’s margin. It costs the end-customer nothing extra, and it does not reduce partner revenue or incentives.
     
  • Partners Earn Capital Contribution Credit: The funding is publicly tracked and credited in the partner's name within the Acquia Partner Portal. This financial support directly counts toward the partner’s standing in the Drupal Association’s Certified Partner Program.
     
  • Predictable Scaling for Drupal: As the Drupal economy grows and partners close more business, funding for the Drupal Association automatically scales alongside it.

We want to extend a massive #DrupalThanks to Acquia for their visionary leadership, and to all the Acquia partners who are now automatically driving the future of the Drupal project with every deal they close.

Together, we aren't just building digital experiences; we are building a sustainable, open web for everyone.

Beyond Chatbots: Creating Smarter, Personalized Experiences with AG-UI

This video is part of a series https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpeDXSh4nHjSZBJ76O07Z9cafBpLPkhBL recorded at Drupal AI Summit New York City 2026.

Discover more Drupal AI events in your region https://www.drupal.org/about/ai/events John Tran builds innovative technical solutions for global brands, helping organizations get real value from their technology while staying focused on business goals. Before ImageX, he founded a technical agency serving Electronic Arts and later led technology at a WPP agency supporting major clients. Discover how Drupal can evolve beyond chatbots into a collaborative, AI-powered experience platform with AG-UI. This session shows how interactive AI agents can work directly within your Drupal site to support content teams, streamline workflows, and deliver more personalized, intuitive experiences for users, without adding technical complexity. We are witnessing a fundamental shift in how businesses utilize Artificial Intelligence. The era of simple, text-based chatbots is ending. In its place, a new generation of "AI Agents" is emerging—intelligent digital assistants capable of reasoning, using tools, and collaborating with humans in real-time to customize content experiences. For Drupal site owners, marketers, and content teams, this opens up a powerful opportunity. Imagine your website becoming a collaborative workspace, where AI collaborates with your visitors to personalize experiences in real time as they interact with your content. This session will introduce a new approach to bringing these interactive AI assistants into Drupal using a component-based toolkit built on AG-UI. While the technology runs behind the scenes, the experience is designed to feel natural and intuitive, AI that is embedded into your end user content experience, rather than in a disconnected pop-up. We will demonstrate how this custom toolkit bridges the gap between complex AI logic and the intuitive Drupal user experience you expect. read more

Discover more Drupal AI events in your region https://www.drupal.org/about/ai/events Matthew Saunders is an AI Ambassador at amazee.io and a long-time Drupal leader with two decades of contribution. He helps organizations adopt practical, secure AI within Drupal, with a focus on data sovereignty, enterprise delivery, and neuro-inclusive design. As organizations race to integrate AI into their digital platforms, a critical question is being overlooked: who actually controls the data? Today, 72% of organizations rank data privacy as their top AI concern, 44% have experienced sensitive data leaking into AI systems, and shadow AI is spreading unchecked. For enterprises running on open-source platforms like Drupal, the answer is not to avoid AI but to deploy it on infrastructure where data never leaves organizational control. This session covers the three pillars of AI sovereignty — data, model, and operational sovereignty — and shows how open-source foundations like Drupal and Kubernetes make it possible to run AI without vendor lock-in, without cross-border data risk, and without sacrificing compliance. Drawing on real-world deployment patterns including private LLM proxies, region-locked vector databases, and open-source Drupal AI provider integrations, this talk connects the strategic "why" to the engineering "how." Whether you are evaluating AI architecture, managing shadow AI risk, or building AI features into Drupal responsibly, you will leave with a clear framework for deploying AI that is powerful, auditable, and fully under your control. read more

He is a thought leader in Drupal AI and plays a key role in shaping the direction of AI within the platform, contributing from a strategic and product perspective. Flowdrop UI for Agents is an intuitive visual interface layer for designing, building and managing AI agents, most often used within Drupal’s AI ecosystem. It is not an AI model in its own right, but an orchestration and design environment that sits above agent infrastructure, making complex workflows more accessible and manageable. In this session, Jamie will demonstrate Flowdrop in practice, showing how it enables integration with external systems via MCP and supports the creation of AI agents using agent-driven approaches. The focus will be on how teams can move from concept to working implementations with greater clarity and control. Looking ahead, the session will explore how agent-driven systems are beginning to generate and coordinate other agents, extending the reach of Drupal’s capabilities through AI. Tools such as Claude Code are already enabling near end to end automation, from Figma designs through to fully functioning Drupal sites and migrations. The next phase is likely to bring this level of orchestration directly into Drupal itself. Attendees will leave with a clear view of current innovation within Drupal AI and a considered perspective on how these developments may evolve. read more

With 18+ years as a software architect, he leads delivery of scalable, enterprise-grade solutions. He works at the intersection of Drupal and AI, helping organisations move past hype to implement practical automation and WebOps strategies that deliver measurable results. Most organizations are stuck in a loop of AI experimentation that never reaches production. The problem isn’t the models; it’s that we’re trying to build houses on sand. Without structure, governance, and reliable data flows, AI is just a parlor trick. Drupal is often overlooked in the AI conversation, but its greatest strength is exactly what AI needs: a robust, API-first architecture and a mature content model. In this session, I’ll show you how we’re moving past prompts to build digital teammates—AI agents that are governed, measurable, and embedded directly into real-world editorial and marketing workflows. We’ll look at a two-part framework for operationalizing AI in Drupal: Stop experimenting, start systemizing: How to define a digital teammate charter so AI has clear inputs, outputs, and SLAs. Moving Beyond the Sandbox: How to take the logic from your team’s best individual experiments—like custom GPTs or Gems—and bake them directly into Drupal. We’ll talk about how to turn isolated wins into shared, governed, human-in-the-loop workflows that actually move the needle for the entire organization. read more

The company recently joined the Drupal AI Initiative. An active member of the Drupal, Write the Docs, and APIDays communities, he focuses on how AI is reshaping APIs, documentation, and developer portals. Over the years there have been many different technology waves that have changed how teams build developer portals: Static site generators, MACH, or React based applications, a range of open source technologies like Backstage or Docusaurus. Through all these waves content management systems like Drupal have been a fixture, often brought in out of necessity when requirements for the portal reached a certain level of complexity. Now that AI is making it possible for tech writers to vibe code solutions for highly specific complex requirements, is there still a need for a CMS? In this talk I will explore the difference between vibe coded documentation portals and systems that use structured data formats to enable and constrain AI. Using two practical examples from the developer portal world, to help you decide what approach would be better for your use case. read more

With the open web being torn apart and reassembled by AI, the role of open source and web teams is more important than ever. The open web is being torn apart and put back together, and the purpose of content management is up for grabs. Who it's for, what it tracks, how it operates — all of this is changing. But AI is also blending in with the rest of the tech. The story is less and less about AI itself, but how it is applied so solve real world problems. As the leading open source framework for structured content, now with a fully functional internal AI subsystem, Drupal can play a much needed role in helping mature organizations use AI to accelerate, without compromising sustainable practices or quality. Drupal can run agents, but it can also be run by agents. With a solid MCP server foundation and provider plugins for all major models, there's a clear path to go from vibe-coded prototype to sustainable production system, including running a scalable and sustainable content production pipeline. read more

Context-driven AI for consistent, compliant, and compelling content - Kristen Pol

This video is part of a series https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLpeDXSh4nHjSZBJ76O07Z9cafBpLPkhBL recorded at Drupal AI Summit New York City 2026. To learn more about Drupal AI visit https://www.drupal.org/ai. Discover more Drupal AI events in your region https://www.drupal.org/about/ai/events AI can generate text, designs, and interfaces at lightning speed, but without the right context, results are often off-brand, non-compliant, or just plain meh. Context is the difference between “AI that guesses” and “AI that gets it,” turning outputs into authentic, on-voice, and intentional results. Context Control Center (CCC) provides a single hub to capture and manage your organization’s rules, policies, and guidelines, then map them directly to AI features. Need government compliance, brand consistency, or a specific tone? CCC ensures every AI output aligns with your requirements. Imagine being able to say: “Every article summary must be 3 sentences under 300 characters.” “Never use these restricted words.” “Match accessibility standards automatically.” “Keep the tone at an 8th-grade reading level.” “Always use our brand colors and typography.” Instead of scattered style guides, briefs, or prompts, CCC centralizes these rules so AI results are consistent, compliant, and compelling. In this session, we’ll explore why context is the missing ingredient for meaningful AI, which types of context have the biggest impact, real-world use cases, and how Context Control Center makes it simple to manage and deliver. You’ll leave with practical insights and a clear path to elevating your AI from “meh” to meaningful. read more

Drupal AI Learners Club — AI Security "Opportunities" (Marlene Wanberg, Randy Fay)

AI Security 'Opportunities': Guardrails, Sandboxes, and Keeping Your Agents on a Leash Marlene Wanberg (@mindewen on drupal.org) leads a structured walkthrough of AI security risks for Drupal developers, organized around three practical concepts: social engineering (malicious instructions injected into an agent's context), sniffing (what data the agent can access), and sending (what it can exfiltrate or act on). She grounds the talk with real-world horror stories — a production database wiped by an agent that decided deleting a volume was a reasonable fix, a Copilot experiment that base64-encoded API keys to evade secret scanners, and an agent that autonomously ordered eggs because a credit card was attached to the account. Randy Fay (@rfay on drupal.org), lead maintainer of DDEV, adds a focused look at DDEV-specific AI add-ons and their security trade-offs, flags supply chain risks in popular add-ons, and shares what a more security-conscious setup looks like in practice. The session closes with an honest discussion of reviewer fatigue — how large AI-generated pull requests make it easy to miss a malicious or broken line buried deep in a diff — and the uncomfortable asymmetry between how fast AI can generate code and how slowly humans (and other AI tools) can review it.

What is Drupal Steward?

Drupal Steward is a web application firewall that bridges the gap between the time when a security release is announced and when your site is fully updated with the new security patch. This globally distributed service from the Drupal Security Team and the Drupal Association provides immediate, affordable protection for your website, while giving your IT team the flexibility to implement site updates without disrupting other priorities. Please note: Not every vulnerability can be protected by the Drupal Steward program, but it is ideally suited to help protect you from those that are mass exploitable. Drupal Steward can only apply to vulnerabilities that involve exploiting a request to the web server, which may not apply to some security issues. Also, a zero-day vulnerability (one that is discovered and publicized without the security team's knowledge) is possible. Learn more and sign up at https://www.drupal.org/steward read more

Drupal Canvas AI: Where Speed Meets Substance

The second half of the equation is Drupal Canvas AI, the next-generation page builder. Instead of dragging and dropping components, you can just tell the AI what you want with prompts that describe the page and content you want to produce. Canvas AI, in conjunction with the CCC, will create the page and include the components you need. As Dries noted, production is becoming a commodity, but judgment and strategy remain human. Drupal AI doesn’t replace your teams, it amplifies their capability to deliver ‘Quality at Scale.’ #MarketingTech #ContentStrategy #DrupalCMS #DXP #AI read more

The Context Control Centre (CCC): Institutional ‘Knowledge as a Service’

The most significant hurdle for AI today is a lack of context. Without it, AI simply gives you the "average response." The Context Control Centre changes this by allowing organizations to store their unique "DNA" directly within Drupal. The CCC organizes institutional knowledge into actionable data: Brand Guidelines: Specific rules for tone, voice, and formatting. Personas: Detailed profiles of target audiences (e.g., Controllers vs. IT Ops). Dynamic Context: A groundbreaking feature where the CCC connects to live data sources like Google Analytics 4 (GA4). Built into your Drupal CMS, AI tools don't just guess; they work within your specific business reality to ensure their output is always on brand, within guidelines, and relevant to the contextual nuances of the task at hand. #MarketingTech #ContentStrategy #DrupalCMS #DXP #AI read more

Helping people tell their cancer stories using AI: Lessons from World Cancer Day

Every year, thousands of people around the world share deeply personal stories about their experiences with cancer through the World Cancer Day campaign. Behind the scenes, a small communications team reviews these submissions to ensure they are appropriate, relevant, and ready to be shared with the world. In this Drupal AI Initiative webinar, we explore how the World Cancer Day team introduced artificial intelligence into their Drupal platform to support this process. Rather than replacing human judgement, AI was used to assist with moderation so that stories could be reviewed faster and contributors could see their experiences published more quickly. Watch our conversation about: • The global storytelling effort behind World Cancer Day • The operational challenges of managing hundreds of story submissions • How AI can responsibly support human decision-making • Lessons for organisations exploring AI for the first time Speakers • Matthew Saunders — AI Ambassador, amazee.io • Charles Andrew Revkin — World Cancer Day Programme, UICC • Diego Costa — COO, 1xInternet This session was designed for organisational leaders, communications teams, and anyone interested in practical, responsible uses of AI. #Drupal #OpenSource #AI #Innovation #TechforGood #cancer read more

KEYNOTE: Neurodiversity: An Underrated Superpower in Business

Vera Herzmann In tech, some of the most innovative minds think differently – and that difference is often misunderstood. People with ADHD, Autism, or High Sensitivity bring unique strengths like deep focus, pattern recognition, creativity, empathy, and sharp intuition. Yet many workplaces still see neurodivergence as a challenge, rather than recognizing it for the powerful asset it truly is. This keynote challenges that mindset and reframes neurodiversity as a competitive advantage in business. Drawing from lived experience and years of organizational consulting, you’ll gain a science-backed understanding of neurodiversity, hear real-world stories from the workplace, and explore how recognizing and embracing neurodivergent talent can unlock hidden potential in teams. Whether you build, design, manage, or lead, this session will shift your perspective, spark meaningful dialogue, and leave you with practical tools to apply in your own professional setting. read more

AI Agents in Drupal CMS - Create your own agent

Speaker: https://www.drupal.org/u/vincenzo-gambino You’ve seen what AI Agents can do in Drupal. What if you could create your own Agents? What if this were so easy that every module across the Drupal ecosystem could have its agents, and they all worked together in harmony? What if, as a result, Drupal became the de facto place to build all AI applications, not just web publishing? If this is you, then this is the talk for you! This talk will teach you how to create agents from scratch using an existing Drupal module. We will explore: - How to code an agent using the framework in the Drupal ai_agents module. - Best practices and theory for splitting out functionality into multiple agents. - How can all those agents be brought together to effectively answer user queries and prove they work with the AI evaluations framework. read more

Declarative Shadow DOM and the future of Drupal Theming

Speaker: JohnAlbin Drupal's old school theming system is server-side rendering. And in the tech world, everything old is new again. In the last two years, modern frontend frameworks have been trying to figure out how to server-side render their client-side JavaScript. React v19 has figured out how to split its components into client and server parts. As of August 2024, this same "split component" capability is now a part of native Web Components with the introduction of Declarative Shadow DOM. Instead of being written in client-side JavaScript, web components with Declarative Shadow DOM can now be defined using HTML and CSS only. So if Drupal was server-side rendering before it was cool, can we leverage Declarative Shadow DOM inserted into Single Directory Components to make Drupal cool again? read more

Speaker: mandclu One of the key elements of the Starshot Initiative is the rapidly evolving system for Recipes. Designed to accelerate site-building, recipes will help people new to Drupal to solve for common needs, and for users of all skill levels to quickly build out content architectures using best practices. This talk will do a deep dive into the Events recipe and its available add-ons, allowing you meet even complex requirements quickly and without custom code. We'll discuss what capabilities are available out-of-the box in Drupal CMS, and the options available to extend them. We'll also talk about how you can add the same capabilities to a site not build with Drupal CMS. Best of all, during the session we'll do a live demonstration of adding capabilities to your site using Events and other recipes read more

Speaker: umekikazuya 「Taxonomy便利ですよね。」って導入をいつもだったらするんですが、今回はできません。なぜなら私は、TaxonomyをCoreから外してほしいと思っているから。 この冒頭で「何言ってるの？」って感じた方。Taxonomyの強みを言えますか？ 本セッションでは、「分類要件といえばTaxonomy！」というDrupalの常識(当たり前)にフォーカスをあてて、その“当たり前”や”習慣”が本当に合理的かを評価し、フレームワークとの向き合い方について、今までのDrupalからすると当たり前ではない提案をさせていただきます。 read more

Drupal in the Loop: チームで育てる学習データ

Speaker: umekikazuya, sachikonitta 数年前まで、機械学習やファインチューニングは、一部の研究機関やAIスタートアップの専有領域でした。 しかしこの数年、さまざまなツールやプラットフォームの登場によって、それが少しずつ、私たちにとっても身近なものになりつつあります。 学習データは、モデルの「知性」を決める最も重要な基盤です。けれど、そのデータをチームで育てるための仕組みである、バージョン管理、ワークフロー、セキュリティ、アクセス制御、監査ログ出力などの要素を包括的にカバーできるツールは、まだ多くありません。 本セッションでは、Drupalを活用し、研究者やエンジニアだけでなく、コンテンツ制作者や企画担当者も含めたチーム全体で学習データを「育てていく」仕組みを提案します。 read more

One kilobyte of JS is enough to make a decoupled FE block in Drupal. And no Babels required!

Speaker: murz To make a Drupal website modern we usually bring there interactive frontend components in JavaScript. But not only just components! Together with them, we have to bring a couple of more things: - A pretty heavy framework: React, Angular, Vue, etc. - Typescript transpiled to JavaScript. - Something like Babel to pack all your JS dependencies into one large bundle. - Rebuild the whole bundle after every change in any TS file! And, suddenly, to display a simple frontend component, your Drupal webpage should download and execute hundreds of kilobytes, or even megabytes of large JS bundles! What if I tell you, that you can simply get rid of all these, and just write a kilobyte of a pure and compact JS code? And with no dependency on any JS framework! So, come and see how it works! read more

The session will include these topics: - What AI search and RAG really are - Why just embedding content in a vector database isn’t enough - Drupal as truth for permissions - How to connect Drupal with vector DB and AI - PoC (How a safe AI search looks like) read more

I’m Not a Front-End Dev: Building Clean UI in Drupal with SDCs and Shoelace

Speaker: yi_jiang As a full-stack Drupal developer, I’ve often found front-end frameworks too opinionated or hard to plug into Drupal cleanly. With Single Directory Components (SDCs) and Web Components like Shoelace, we now have a scalable, framework-free way to build modern UI — without needing React or Vue. This session shows how to use Web Components inside SDCs to create reusable, maintainable elements that integrate easily with Twig, Layout Builder, or Paragraphs. I’ll walk through practical examples and share trade-offs from real projects. This talk is for developers who live in Drupal, not Figma — and want a sustainable, future-friendly UI approach that doesn’t require becoming a front-end specialist. read more
