Using DDEV for Drupal Development

This is a general outline for the session and what I will be talking about.

Introduction
Reasons for using ddev
Platforms ddev can run on:
Windows using WSL2 – I will be discussing this use case
Mac
Linux
Installing Docker on Ubuntu under WSL2 (using docker Desktop makes ddev slower)
Installing ddev
Installing Linux PHPstorm
Configuring DDEV
Advanced configuration options
Installing Drupal
Fresh install
Make sure you do a composer require drush/drush
Common contributed modules I usually install
Installing a version of the site in git
Composer install
Drush deploy
Using DDEV
ddev snapshot
ddev import-db and ddev export-db for importing/exporting a database
ddev drush cex (make sure you have the config directory set up)
git workflow
git add
git commit
git push
git pull
Starting the website
PHPstorm
Getting ready for debugging
ddev xdebug on/off
Slide/demo/video show PHPstorm in action to debug something.
VSCode
Debugging techniques
Using drush php:cli to debug or test code
Example workflow at Rutgers:
Insert sample workflow slide/demo
