Decoupled Blocks with Drupal, Backdrop, and React

Over the last few months I decided to start building some of the decoupled blocks that I've been hearing about at Drupal events.  After getting the Drupal version working I wondered about how I would put the same block into a Backdrop site.  So I changed the module to be a Backdrop module instead of a Drupal module.

After that project I had a Backdrop site that had information I wanted to share inside a Drupal site.  I reversed the process, making a decoupled Backdrop block first and then changing the module to be a Drupal module.

Local Dev Tools Showcase

This is an opportunity for folks in the community to share their local development workflow. Each interested participant will be given 5-10 minutes to show/share the tools and processes they use for local development. 

So far, the following folks have expressed an interest in participating:

  • Tim Erickson - Lando 
  • Martin Price - Lando 
  • Joseph Flatt - Custom

Post a comment here if you would be willing to share a little bit about the tools you use for local devevelopment.

SEO and Backdrop/Drupal

Let's have a discussion about SEO.  I've tried to make use of my librarian training in the past to game search results.  I'll offer some of my experiences with search console, analytics and data studio.  All Google products.

When I worked for the library we had a language learning database that we called Free Rosetta Stone but people couldn't find it.  So I went to work on the node for it.
