How do people in the know develop under Windows? WSL? MAMP PRO? PhpStorm? Others?

How to deploy to Ubuntu?

In Part 1, we talked about using Backdrop CMS to run your entire business, from job tracking to stadium screens. Now, let’s get our hands dirty and talk infrastructure. If your business apps are critical, you need speed, reliability, and full control over your data.

We're trading expensive cloud bills and vendor lock-in for a lean, powerful, self-hosted infrastructure stack that keeps you in the driver's seat.

This is a deep dive into what DevOps need to develop, deploy, and automate your mission-critical Backdrop applications:

You already know Backdrop CMS builds great websites. But what if it could revolutionise your business processes, manage your clients, and even control the big-screen TV at sports stadiums?

For beginners and people of all levels who may be able to share their tips and suggest solutions on getting started working on core Pull Requests.  I am happy to be the facilitator and kick it off with some of my experiences getting started with core PR's and setting up a useful local environment.

An opportunity to ask beginner questions about Backdrop CMS. We'll have a demo site ready to show how to do things and answer your questions LIVE. A perfect place to ask beginner questions about things like:

* Content Types and Fields
* Getting Started with Views
* The Backdrop CMS Layout System

Out of the box, Backdrop CMS has Views that can have exposed filters and Search.

However, there are modules that can extend the capability of Views and Search including integration with third party solutions including AI.  The purpose of this session is to give a high level overview of the options with very brief demos.  The idea being if there is demand to dig deeper, these sessions can be added later in the unconference.

Even those who don't run a full-fledged online shop sometimes need the option for website visitors to make payments, such as donations, costs for informational materials, or event registration fees.

What are good payment options in Backdrop? Which payment methods are recommended, can they easily be implemented in Backdrop, and how? For example: How can Paypal or Stripe be integrated with various modules like Webform, Registration, Ubercart, or Basic Cart?

Backdrop contains several different methods for how to put ALT text on your images. None are perfect, and there is room for improvement. In this discussion I would like to cover:

• How to store ALT text with Image fields (see video)
• How to store ALT text with Image (File) entities (see video)
• We can improve this! How do we want core to handle this, in the future? 

Many universities are adopting Backdrop CMS for various reasons, with budget efficiency and flexibility being key factors. As financial and structural considerations become increasingly important, let's explore the features that can make the CampusDrop platform a strong choice for educational institutions (K-12, community colleges, and universities). We'll discuss flexible layouts with Layout Paragraphs, customizable content types, preset views, and display options, among other capabilities designed to meet the unique needs of educational organizations.

There is work happening on the Content Moderation module and Workflow modules.

This session will talk about what these modules do, about progress being made, and about other related modules.
