CKEditor 4 is reaching its end of support November 2023. The Backdrop community has been working towards transitioning to CKEditor 5. Come see the current state of the new module, how to test it, and what work remains to be done. We expect this module will be included in Backdrop 1.27.0.
Demo module can be used for other purposes than its name might suggest. We will talk on how it can help you for testing core or contrib modules.
The layout system in Backdrop CMS is a powerful system for building custom pages. In this session, we'll walk through the process of creating custom layouts.

The Rules module is a module that allows site architects to create action/reaction events that would normally require writing custom code. Some of the things you can do with the rules module include:
1) Sending an email to a site editor anytime someone creates a new article or comment.
2) Automatically assigning a special role to anyone who creates a new account.
3) Automatically unpublish content after a certain time frame.
4) Automatically assign a node to someone other than the author.
Anyone can use this timeslot to show off a project you have been working on. This might be a module, a theme, or a website.
5-10 minutes each.
Login and post a comment if you would like to showcase your project.
The views module is a powerful tool that allows site administrators to create complicated and dynamic displays of their content without writing any code or knowledge of database queries.
