With the recent core commit to allow specifying Layout types, the next Backdrop release will better support the development of Layout Paragraphs that is underway. We've reviewed the status of this work at a previous Backdrop Live, but it makes sense to give an update on where things stand in preparation for the next Backdrop core release and the 2.x branch of Paragraphs that will follow.
We'll explore the situation PSU was in with multiple Drupal 7 sites, the decision and process of moving to Backdrop, and some of the efficiencies we found along the way to move these sites.
I'll screenshare a short demo of a project that I'm currently working on, including a peek at the back end showing how I've put things together and what the administrative experience is like for the site admins. The site makes much use of Paragraphs and the new modal administration capabilities in that module.

I've recently ported a rather complex Drupal 7 theme to a Backdrop layout, and wanted to talk about the experience with others.
