Drupal 7 to Drupal 8: Our Journey
=== Drupal 7 to Drupal 8: Our Journey ===
''''' Erik Olson, Meredith Wynn (NC State University) ''''' <br/>
 
Drupal 8 has some sorely needed improvements and many nice upgrades from Drupal 7. New tools like Symfony, Twig, and Composer alone make it worth the upgrade. Because of these new tools there are substantial changes in the way Drupal 8 is built and manages its data model.<br/>
Topics include:
* Benefits of Drupal’s “Migrate” module Who should and what it lacksshouldn’t migrate* How to migrate viewsWhat’s new in Drupal 8* How What to structure your yaml files for your custom content typesdo before you migrate* Rewriting templates in TwigGeneral overview of migration process
