Estimating projects has always been an arduous task for organizations. There are many challenges associated with the estimation process. Many times, the projects to be estimated are similar and hence creating estimates from scratch is redundant and time consuming. High level sprint planning with complexity and logic calculations is also a challenge. Will talk about how did we go about automating:
- Estimates (Templates: e-Commerce, Intranet, Knowledge Portal, or Corporate Website)
- Resource loading (high and low)
- Sprint plans (Agile projects)

Sessions Off the "Drupal Island"
Audience:
All Attendees
The world of the internet is built on openness. From the open source tools used to build the web to the free speech that we enjoy in the United States when it comes to what we post, there is little filter for a determined individual of even relatively limited means.
I want us to talk about the basic techniques that we can use to secure those means. There are a variety of reasons that you would want to secure your website, browsing, and communications. These include hackers looking to use your website and computer for nefarious purposes, scammers looking to extract money from you and your customers, all the way up to state-sponsored actors with specific agendas.
Let's set up a more secure version of our websites, our businesses, and ourselves together.

Site Building
Audience:
Beginner
Building a Multilingual site can be intimidating. In Drupal 8, the tools for internationalization are better than ever but there’s still much to do to get up and running. To localize a Drupal 8 site you will need to know what modules to enable and how to configure them.
Not a coder? Not a problem - no coding required. In this session, we will walk you through step by step how to configure a multilingual site, using examples from VisitTheUSA.com. We’ll show you how to configure content types and fields. We’ll show you how to translate text strings. We’ll show you how translation providers use connector modules to integrate with Drupal. And much, much more!
By the end of this tutorial, attendees will know everything they need to know to get up and running with translations in Drupal!
Session Outline
What modules to enable
Configuring fields for translation
Which fields should I allow to be translated?
Using the Translation Interface to translate strings
How do I translate menus?
How do I translate taxonomy?
Configuring “Language negotiation”
“Gotchas” with translation you need to know
TMS examples - Lingotek & SDL
Case study examples from VisitTheUSA.com

It’s an exciting (and scary) time to be a developer, shop owner or tech director. New hyper focused services like Auth0 are removing old challenges and freeing up dev cycles. Docker is allowing us to both spin up hyper complex and bespoke infrastructure both in production and on our own local dev machines with ease. CI and CD are allowing us to build out source into easily deployable and automatable artifacts. Drupal is now being augmented by things like Node, Angular and React. But when, where, how and should i adopt any of these things into my development flow?
In this session we will give you a crash course on emerging development trends that are likely to stick so you can get a head start on optimizing your development flows for the future. Specifically we will look at:
Hyper specialized services like Auth0
Local development trends with Docker and Kalabox
Composer based build and deployment processes in the land of CI
How things like Node/Angular/React factor into my build
Second generation PaaS like platform.sh
The attendee should leave with a broad sense of what tech is on the horizon.

This talk is the latest iteration on a previous DrupalCon Community Keynote and DrupalCamp Ottawa Keynote.
Drupal, over the past several years, has largely been a technology solution that almost sells itself. From huge organizations to entire governments to well established educational institutions, much of the world has standardized on Drupal as their solution for millions of websites.
As an open source community, we've built an amazing solution. The world has adopted it, and now we must support it.
By examining creativity where we then need to support what we've created, this presentation discusses some reasons for Drupal's success and the issues we now face in sustainably supporting our creation.
Covered topics include:
Diversity and inclusion
Maintaining a healthy work-life / Drupal-life balance
Preventing burnout at an organisation/community/personal level
The human benefits of contributing to Open Source
Drupal community success stories / lessons learnt
Attendees, of any expertise, will consider answers to:
What does it mean to support something?
Who's job is it to care about the users of Drupal?

Design, Theming, & Front-end Development
Audience:
Intermediate
Theming has changed in Drupal 8. If you've themed in Drupal 7, some parts will feel familiar, and others will probably feel entirely new.
The technical details are already out there so instead we'll talk about the stories and reasons behind some of the changes and in doing so try to understand Drupal 8 theming better as a whole and learn to work with the system rather than against it.
Whether you've themed in Drupal 8 or not, expect to learn a thing or two that you can use in your day-to-day work.
We will talk about:
How small groups of people that care can make significant changes
Why making Drupal's theming experience better is necessary
How new tools can surprise you with new ideas

In this session we will show how we built a healthcare portal for one of Florida's largest insurers for healthcare using Drupal. This presentation will cover site-building, contrib modules and custom modules, theming, integrations, data import, security and optimization. One of the biggest components of this site is the integration with multiple enterprise services, ranging from rating engines to the ACA healthcare exchange. We will discuss the challenges encountered as well as the solutions implemented. Lastly, we will discuss how JavaScript frameworks (AngularJS & ReactJS) evaluated with Drupal to enhance usability and performance of the application.
Topics
Site features (plan selection, checkout, dual DB schema, shopping cart)
Packaging and Deployment
Data integration: migrate v/s feeds
Internal and external integration with enterprise services (rating engine, physician directory, Healthcare.gov, cart checkout, google analytics, salesforce)
Challenges in implementing a healthcare site - Security & HIPAA
UI development: AngularJS v/s ReactJS

Following a rebranding initiative, the Rainforest Alliance web design team collaborated with Last Call Media to build the next version of www.rainforest-alliance.org in Drupal 8. This talk is our story and covers how agile software development methodologies were used to meet the requirements of the project with Drupal 8.
You've probably seen their little frog on coffee cups and packaging all over. Rainforest Alliance is an international force bringing real change to the world on a daily basis. As arguably the most impressive Drupal 8 site to date, launched within a year of D8's initial release, this is a timely and highly relevant topic.
Using this real-world Drupal 8 example, we will discuss Agile/Scrum techniques used to optimize the thinking necessary for getting a large, complex, Drupal 8 project across the finish line. Topics and problem areas will be discussed in a story-telling format and will be of benefit and interest to attendees of any expertise.

Gather 'round and I'll tell you the story of my journey from starting out as a complete Drupal newbie to becoming a core committer for Drupal 8. I'll share some lessons I've learned, and we'll talk about how you can implement some of them into your life and your career.
You'll hear some Drupal stories including an inside look into the development of Drupal 8 and how Twig stayed in core. It's a bit of a cautionary tale at times but the tone is light-hearted, and there will be capes, cold medication, and at least one cat picture. I'll be telling my story but the takeaways scattered throughout can be used to navigate your path in Drupal or in life. There will be plenty of Drupal talk but ultimately this session is more about things like following your passion and staying sustainable.
Why should you attend this presentation?
You're curious about Drupal contribution or thinking about starting a new project or hobby (doesn't have to be Drupal-related)
You want some insight into how people get involved in the Drupal community and how things get done
You like hearing origin stories even if they don't include radioactivity

Learn how to debug Drupal using modules such as Devel, Kint & Web Profilier. Get a handle on even more powerful tools such as Xdebug with Sublime. When I first got into Drupal as an experienced PHP programmer, I was mystified by the backend of Drupal -- so many multidimensional arrays, so many hooks, so much stuffs! I figured it out fairly quickly, though, with help of a few tools, which I’ll show you.
Some topics I will cover:
General Debuging / Troubleshootin tips.

Imposter Syndrome is a condition in which one feels like they aren't qualified to do what they've been tasked to do or have gotten to where they are through sheer luck. Not only have I personally experienced this and continue to almost 20 years into my career, but almost every developer I've ever met has dealt with it. It's even more common in the Drupal community with people being labeled as Site Builders or Themers instead of developers.
When developing/designing/managing/cooking, do you ever feel like:
- You are faking your skills
- You are only where you are due to circumstances and/or luck
- Anyone could do what you're doing
- You don't understand why you're being trusted with the task
- At any moment someone is going to discover how bad you are at your job
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then you may be suffering from Imposter Syndrome. Congratulations. Acceptance is the first step to recovery.
In my presentation, I'll talk about common ways that Imposter Syndrome expresses itself and some concrete tips & tricks on how to deal with it, both for yourself and coworkers or employees.
Not convinced that other people actually suffer from this too? We'll talk about some specific examples of mine and other's bouts with Imposter Syndrome in what I like to call Disasterpiece Theater.
We'll also get an assist from Dr. Seuss as we go along with a satirical dev-flavored reading of "Oh, The Places You'll Code". Turns out that it's an amazing allegory for learning development.
Another big takeaway is the Test-Driven Personal Development flowchart, which breaks down complicated emotions into a simple diagram that can be followed with logic. No more pesky emotions getting in the way of your work!
This session is for developers of all ages and experience levels, especially the ones who have battles with self-doubt, but even if you don't struggle with it often, you will come away with ways that you can help other developers on your team.
Session takeaways:
1. How to identify, prevent, and combat bouts of Imposter Syndrome.
2. Real world examples of proven developers' examples of Imposter Syndrome.
3. The Test-Driven Personal Development Flowchart.
4. The knowledge that you are not alone and that we all suffer from this condition.

You downloaded some free software and now you’re part of a community? That’s right! One that is known for being one of the largest, most diverse - and kind - communities filled with people who are passionate, innovative, and building amazing things with Drupal.
Keeping this community alive and thriving is achieved with a partnership between the community itself and The Drupal Association. This keynote will shed light on who this special community is, how we move forward together as a community while preserving our values, and what The Drupal Association’s unique role is in this partnership.
You will see that not only did you chose winning software, but also a winning community.
“Come for the code. Stay for the community”.

On the Florida Drupal scene since 2010, Hot Sauce Design & Development (that's me!) has managed to survive the crazy, stressful, fun world of being a solo Drupal shop. In this session, I will discuss my own experience with running a strictly Drupal web development shop succssfully for over 7 years.
I will discuss topics like:
How to get things going on your own
What to charge
What clients to strive for (or not)
Working with other independent shops
How to find the resources you need for that one big project
And how not to lose your mind and maybe make enough to keep the lights on.
Though results are obviously not guaranteed, this session is geared towards those looking to go fly solo, those who already are, and those who want to ridicule people nuts enough to be "self-employed". Lots of time at the end for Q&A as well!
