Louis Sawtell & Adam Browne - Decoupled UIs

Decoupled UIs - what we've learned from building Drupal sites which don't have a standard front end

In this talk Adam and Louis, from miggle, will talk through some examples of ‘headless’ Drupal in both D7 and D8, where the user interface hasn’t been Drupal (or even screen-based).

We’ll cover:

- How we integrated Drupal 8 with The Student Room’s page building layer/machine; Nova, all of the other technology they use and the considerations we had to make.
- How we explored other methods of data presentation by writing Alexa skills for the Amazon Echo
- How we used Drupal 7 to manage JSON feeds which were used by other display media, like OOH billboards
