PreviousNext has worked closely with a large government agency on their public portal for the last few years.

Being accountable for the planning, execution, and delivery of a project is demanding. Managing people, facilitating communication, resolving conflict, and mitigating risk are prerequisites to completing on schedule, and within an agreed budget.

The Drupal open source project only exists because of code contributions by tens of thousands of developers and Drupal focused companies around the world.

On a recent project a feature was requested to allow admins to launch some content within a modal window from the WYSWIYG on a Drupal 8 website. The goals were as follows:

There has been some movement of late around adding some default content to the standard profile.

A recent project involved the use of the Simple Hierarchical Select module to input category data for a particular content type.

Base themes in Drupal are incredibly useful but often add bloat to the finished sub-theme when care isn’t taken to remove unnecessary css files, or files that are 5% used and 95% overridden.

Now we've got the experience of a number of production D8 sites under our belt we took the time to consolidate our CMI workflow into some useful drush commands.

And naturally we've open sourced them.

As you'd be aware by now - Drupal 8 features lots of refactoring of from procedural code to object-oriented.

One such refactoring was the way forms are build, validated and executed.

As part of our code review process for a current project, it was suggested that rather than calling the static Drupal formBuilder function to insert a form into a custom block, we actually inject the *Form Builder service* directly into the module
