XB week 7: Drupal Dev Days Burgas

It’s Drupal Dev Days week! With Lauri presenting a Keynote there and several people out this week (myself included), it was a quiet week for Experience Builder.

Consequently, it was the first week since the 0.x branch was opened that zero merge requests landed…

Even the weekly meeting was fairly quiet.

But on the other side of the planet, undisturbed by things such as vacation or Drupal Dev Days, Lee “larowlan” made a big push forward on [META] Support component types other than SDC, in his MR where he proposes to already remove the current tight coupling to Single-Directory Components (SDC). That tight coupling obviously needs to be removed, but we needed to start somewhere — SDCs were merely the first step.

Still, even at Drupal Dev Days Burgas, important Experience Builder discussions happened: catch, Alex Pott and Dave “longwave” Long discussed the JSON-based data storage model in depth (that was proposed by Alex “effulgentsia” Bronstein). Some important steps forward were made!

Thanks to Lauri for reviewing this!

Week 7 was June 24–30, 2024.
