We’re trying something new for our September update – a video! Let us know if you like this format in the comments.
Embedded below is a video we sent out to our Supporting Partners about the engineering initiatives that their support funded in September.
Here’s what you’ll learn about:
- The issue fork and merge request beta – which makes Drupal contribution faster and easier, especially for new contributors.
- The lazy-load initiative – which will make all Drupal sites on 9.1 and beyond faster.
- Composer 2 support – Drupal now fully supports being built with Composer 2, which is much faster and less memory-hungry than Composer 1.
- The Auto-Updates contribution week, which the DA held with community contributors from inside and outside of Drupal.
- New efforts to match make organizations who want to contribute with initiatives that need help.
