Issue 353 - August, 23rd 2018
I'm fresh back from the Decoupled Drupal Days conference in New York. It was a great event of which I was honored to be a co-organizer and speaker. I hope to highlight some of the sessions in next week's issue. They were all recorded. Though I didn't get to see very many of them, I've heard many positive comments. On to the links.
