If you want to chop off Drupal’s head you must first determine where the neck is. That can be more difficult than playing croquet with a flamingo.

 

Join a lively panel discussion about the varied techniques used to implement the “headless Drupal” concept. Panel members will each bring a unique perspective on the challenges of meeting the Red Queen’s demand of “Off with Drupal’s head!”

  • Raphael Traviss, a contributor to the RESTful module, will speak from his experience with that module in combination with Backbone and other front end tools.
  • Matt Glaman has written Angular apps (contribkanban.com and the Chrome extension Drupal Issue Tracking) that read from drupal.org’s relatively new read-only REST API (https://www.drupal.org/api)
  • Beth is a Drupal developer who has used Views to structure feeds of data to be sent to non-Drupal systems.
  • Ashley Cyborski is a designer who writes prototype and style guide markup outside of Drupal to then be connected to Drupal sites.
  • Steve Persch, a senior engineer and team lead at Palantir, will moderate the discussion and encourage audience questions.
