LN Webworks: Improve the Performance of Drupal Websites using Core Web Vitals

A highly optimized website can improve search engine ranking and user experience. As a result, such websites receive millions of visitors each day and provide a better customer experience, thereby boosting revenue. The goal of ranking higher on search engines is to attract the most traffic and relevant visitors to your website. In addition to providing a great user experience, optimizing a website's performance can also prevent visitors from switching to your competitors. According to studies, users are losing patience, and their attention spans are also decreasing. About 47% of users expect every website to load within a few seconds. As Google wants to make searching faster, easier, and more useful for users, it will favor websites that load quickly. When your site grows in popularity, optimizing the loading time becomes even more crucial, and shaving off a few milliseconds now can have a big impact later on.

Drupal Association blog: Drupal Association to hire Fran Garcia-Linares

I am pleased to announce that the Drupal Association has hired Fran Garcia-Linares, as of 1 April 2023! We are thrilled to bring Fran’s talent to the team.

Fran had been doing contract work with the Drupal Association since October 2021 as part of the GitLab acceleration initiative. He currently lives in El Puerto de Santa Maria, Cádiz, Spain.

Fran’s hiring is part of the Drupal Association’s effort to become more global in our hiring. We now have a relationship with a professional employer organization that allows us to hire in over 130 countries, making the possibilities of hiring international talent endless!

Fran has worked on a myriad of important projects including:

  • The GitLab issue migration. This project will allow the community to handle the issue queues in GitLab instead of the current system. The team is working on migrating all current and past issues to this new system.
  • The redesign of the Contribution Records system. Built in Drupal 10, the redesign will replace the existing Drupal 7 system. This new system accepts contributions from drupal.org and GitLab, once GitLab issues are enabled.
  • The jsonapi endpoint for Project Browser, which will allow Project Browser to list all existing Drupal projects and allow querying by multiple filters. This is also built with Drupal 10.
  • The relaunch of api.drupal.org with Drupal 10. This relaunch is a full rewrite of the existing Drupal 7 site.
  • The final stages of Project Messaging, a core module that will allow sending notifications to all Drupal sites directly.

Fran’s background includes studying Computer Engineering and working as a teacher during the first few years of his career. He then switched to web programming, working with several PHP frameworks, before beginning to work with Drupal 6/7 around 2012. Fran was excited about how much he could achieve with Drupal and never looked back!

Over the years, Fran has enjoyed maintaining Drupal sites and backend programming. In his free time, Fran enjoys being active and outdoorsy, usually by going for bicycle rides and family hikes. A fun fact about Fran is that he knows how to juggle with basketballs, although it’s been a while since he’s tried the feat!

Ever since I joined the Drupal Association, I’ve been heavily involved in community projects, and I enjoy that part the most, knowing that the work I do has an impact on the whole community.” - Fran Garcia-Linares

I look forward to having him on staff and witnessing all he will accomplish! I also look forward to more global hires in the Drupal Association’s future.
