See and try yourself how Drupal connects with Next.js and why it may (or may not) be your Next solution.

You will need a laptop capable of using DDEV (Linux or Win/Mac with Docker desktop) and a skill to follow the rapid setting up of the environment, pulling and building the required stack. I'll try to help novices to be able to set up and play. It should be fun.

We will set up the Drupal project, and configure it properly. Then we will set up Next.js. After connecting the two, we will be able to test and play with the combo with a few prepared demonstration use cases.

In theory, many things look interesting but only practice can show you what the challenges of Drupal and Next.js integration mean. After the workshop, every participant will have the playground on their own machine and be skilled enough to repeat it with ease.

I have been presenting at various Drupal camps in Europe since 2011. I am running a professional development school in Novi Sad and I frequently organise workshops with various technologies. I feel quite confident, with good English, always ready to improvise, answer questions, always striving to be funny, interactive and yet to deliver on time. I have a wide knowledge and I always strive to present hard things the easy way. I hope I will be given the opportunity to teach at Drupal Dev Days and in Burgas ❤️
