About Drupal 10

Dries on stage at DrupalCon Prague

Over twenty years in the making, Drupal 10 is the latest and greatest version of the Drupal content management system. Powering sites such as NASA, Tesla, and millions more, Drupal is a high powered, low-code CMS with a large and devoted developer community.

Drupal 10 will include features such as

  • Symfony 6.2 PHP framework for a secure, and feature rich foundation.
  • CKEditor 5 is the next generation of text editors, which will make the content creation best-of-breed
  • The new Claro administrative theme brings web accessibility to the forefront, with a new modern look and feel for Drupal’s backend.
  • The new Olivero front-end theme puts a new face on Drupal’s out of the box experience.
  • The new theme generator tool allows for easier creation of custom themes.

The party

Dries on stage at DrupalCon Prague

This is open to everyone (free of charge)! Drupalers from all over the world will be attending through Zoom.

Each hour, we’re having 3 speakers giving 10 minute talks on something Drupal 10 related (this could be a D10 compatible module or theme, or a feature of Drupal core). These talks are meant to be informal and fun, and will not be recorded.

If you’d like to speak, please reach out. We’d love to hear about topics such as

  • Quick rundown of your Drupal 10 compatible module or theme.
  • How you solved a “gotcha”, while making your project Drupal 10 compatible.
  • Walk through of a new Drupal 10 feature.

Reminder that all talks are only 10 minutes. Also note that we might not have room for everyone who wants to speak.

In between each speaker, we’re spacing 10 minutes for socializing, hanging out, and checking out each other’s pets! All attendees must abide by the Drupal Code of Conduct during this party.
