A demonstration of the Drupal 7 to Backdrop CMS upgrade process.

I've worked on a handful of Drupal 7 to Backdrop upgrades. While I usually follow a standard process, there are always some peculiar challenges with each one.

I will provide a demo of a fairly basic upgrade from a sample Drupal 7 website, but will leave lots of room to give an overview of how to deal with some common issues, and for questions.
