We're very excited for DrupalCon Portland 2022, where we'll be delivering training, presenting sessions, volunteering, and sponsoring the event. Let's check out all the activities the Evolving Web team will be involved in at DrupalCon Portland 2022!
We spoke with four past and present Evolving Web trainees to hear about their first-hand experiences with our Drupal training program. They share some valuable tips to help your team members get started.
In the first part of this article, we reviewed in detail the three main application types you should consider for building decoupled Drupal. Now, in part two, we'll go through some key aspects that'll determine how your application will work, and present some tips and resources to get your implementation started and help you make the best possible decisions.

Drupal's API-enabled architecture—one of the main reasons why we at Evolving Web use this system—opens up infinite possibilities for a decoupled Drupal, separating its back-end CMS from its front-end theming system and giving us the tools to use our Drupal installation as a content hub for various technologies and applications.
Update: The Drupal Association announced on 23 February 2022 that Drupal 7 end of life was extended by one year to 1 November 2023. It also announced the end-of-life date will be re-evaluated annually.

I started my career as a Drupal developer, but with time I shifted towards content strategy and user experience (UX), which made me realize, among many other things, how developer decisions impact design. That's why I believe any Drupal developer can use this advice: everyone who contributes to building a website also contributes to UX. When we all incorporate UX design thinking into our work, the quality of our output can only get better.
Drupal has long been known for its flexibility as both a content management system and a development platform. It’s one of the main reasons we at Evolving Web use Drupal. But, as we hear more about Digital Experience Platforms (DXP), what role does Drupal play in the new digital landscape? If you’re rethinking your digital strategy and deciding which technologies to use, how does Drupal stand up against other technology options?
2021 was an eventful year for the Drupal community. In April, we celebrated Drupal's 20th anniversary and participated in a month-long Drupal Fest. We also launched Discover Drupal and other initiatives to make Drupal more inclusive. We marked the end of life of Drupal 8 and the growth of Drupal 9 adoption with it.
We at Evolving Web had plenty to write about in 2021. From technical tutorials about Drupal 9 to articles about accessibility and inclusion, we aimed to deliver relevant information and useful insights to the developers, content strategists, designers, marketers, and technologists who follow us.
If you missed some of it, we'll save you some time and walk you through Evolving Web's ten most-read articles from 2021, from #10 to #1!
