TL;DR: I’m requesting members of the Drupal community to help my research about the need for a bookmarking tool by responding a super quick survey.

As part of my dissertation work for my bachelor’s degree, I’m unsurprisingly working in something related to Drupal. After a lot of consideration regarding a project that could be within a reasonable scope but also allowed me to contribute a little bit to the Drupal ecosystem, a chat with Cristina and Christian helped me decide to work in the shortcut module, and try to make improvements before it is marked to be removed to core – and try to avoid that because I believe it could be a useful tool for both the navigation and the dashboards initiatives.

But first things first.

One of the elements I am looking to explore the most in my research is the full process of the contribution, from identifying the issue to solve, get quantitative data through a survey in the community to establish that the problem is worth solving it, then propose a solution and get feedback on it.

I would appreciate it a lot if you could help me achieve my goal by answering the survey I’ve prepared.

The Drupal community has continuously sought ways to enhance the performance and efficiency of Drupal sites. The performance testing framework Gander has been part of Drupal core since version 10.2. The result of joint efforts between the Google Chrome team and Tag1 Consulting, this powerful tool is specifically designed to optimize Drupal performance. Optimized performance ensures that sites are not only fast but also efficient and sustainable. Today, we will take a closer look at how Gander played a crucial role in improving the Drupal core test suite runtime by 10%. ## Identifying A Core Performance Issue Gander's impact on Drupal development was recently highlighted by its identification of a performance issue within Drupal core. The issue (#3410312) reported a particular code section being called redundantly during automated test runs and on live websites, resulting in delays. ### The Bottleneck Identified Drupal is designed to use the flood system for user logins. It first checks if a flood protection table exists in the database. If it does not exist, Drupal postpones the creation of the table until it needs to write to it instead of creating the missing table immediately. What can happen is...

The purpose of this tutorial is to explain how to set up a best practice local environment for Drupal multisite, including on Acquia Site Factory:

1. Configure Lando to support wildcard DNS.
2. In settings.php, set an "App ID" to use in code for a specific multisite in any environment.
3. In settings.php, set database, public files, memcache prefix, Solr core, and other settings per "App ID".
4. Configure Drush aliases per multisite and per environment.
5. Write bash scripts to push and pull sites using these aliases.

1. Configure Lando with wildcard DNS

   Lando is a docker orchestration framework for development environments.

At MidCamp a few weeks ago, Martin Anderson-Clutz tapped me on the shoulder to check out a Smart Date issue for compatibility with Drupal 10.2. As of Drupal 10.2, ListItemBase::extractAllowedValues takes an array as its first argument versus a string. The method used to explode a newline separated string into an array for its callers. I took a look at the issue. The change affected the parseValues method in the SmartDateListItemBase class. The parseValues method takes the field's values and passes them to extractAllowedValues, the method with a changed signature in Drupal 11.

The original method contained the following:

The website of your business, be it any, is a complete brand narration in itself. These days, whenever you hear a brand’s name - you always either check out their social handles and then move on to their website. This holds true when we are talking about e-commerce business, real estate, and so on. 

Speaking of real estate specifically, creating a website that works in your favor and not for the sake of it can make or break your business. But, out of so many CMS options in the market, which one should you pick? The answer is simple - the one that suits your business and all its specific needs. And, what’s better than Drupal? Well, to simplify it, let’s have a look at some of the big top
