If you are working with Drupal 7 and you want to know how to do it in Drupal 8, this is your session!

Drupal 8 has become more powerful and flexible out of the box for site builders. During this session we will walk around the administration of Drupal 8 to do what a site builder usually do, we will comment all the improvements that you will find in Drupal 8 as well as the differences and changes between Drupal 7 and 8.

We will take a look at the new code to see why some modules are into core and why you won't need another modules anymore.

Then, we will do together a live demo with the last version of Drupal 8 putting focus on the most important and powerful improvements like:

  • New content administration
  • Blocks and layouts.
  • Configuration of content types and new fields.
  • Form and view display.
  • Multilingual.
  • Configuration management.
