Themer Friendly Module Development
Saturday, February 27th – 5:00pm to 5:40pm
Room: G7
#KanopiModDev
Join Jason Savino, Senior Drupal Engineer at Kanopi Studios as he outlines how to help module developers output code that themers can use without losing the modules integrity!
How many times have you sat down to theme a site only to find that a custom or contrib module is outputting data that doesn’t work with the comps. Unordered lists that need to be divs, divs that need to be spans or tables that need to be anything but a table! Modules that have un-themable HTML as output have caused hours of unneeded stress that could have been avoided.
The session will include:
- Demoing a fully functional sample module with two different issues
- Discussing rational to change each issue
- Walk through the code modifications for each issue
- This session is perfect for all front-end and back-end developers!
About Jason: Jason Savino is an experienced Drupal front-end developer with over a decade of experience in web development including digital graphics and content management systems. He has strong problem-solving and innovating skills and has a passion for standards-based design and accessibility, as well as user-centric design.
