HKDUG April 21 Meetup

Join the Hong Kong Drupal User Group for the April 21 meetup. During last March 30 Meetup we have a quick review of Drupal 7.x Zen 3.x subtheme development with live demo; this time we will change the meetup as "side-by-side, step-by-step workshop" style. Special thanks to CNNGo.com once again offered us use of their office in Quarry Bay.

The Hong Kong Drupal User Group are open to everyone with an interest in Drupal and are a great opportunity to learn more about what Drupal can do and what folks are building with it.

Here are the meetup details so far:

  • The target of the workshop is to provide a brief example and idea of HOWTO create your own Drupal 7.x Zen 3.x subtheme.
  • You may use your own design besides example provided as below (BTW, you may need to request volunteers to give you a hand).
  • Please prepare your own Drupal 7.x setup before join the meeting (e.g. install XAMPP in your notebook and setup with Drupal 7.x).
  • Please follow Edison's HOWTO Create Zen 7.x-3.x Subtheme in Step-by-step (Part 1, Part 2), trial and error, and prepare your question before meeting (We will try to shorten the workshop section into Q&A style if possible).
  • Your idea here - Suggestions welcome - Feel free to comment on this post or contact us directly!
  • Don't forget that we need AS MANY VOLUNTEERS AS POSSIBLE! We hope to have a 1-on-1 assistance style. Please check below for more information ;-)
