Clients benefit from having one clearly defined project lead, which for this project was Folk. Things run more effectively when there’s ‘One throat to choke’, so make sure you establish where clients can go to address challenges from the get-go. #TwoSuppliersOneTeam #DrupalSouth

Collaboration wins versus going it alone. Our mantras from the project were: ‘Two heads are better than one’ and ‘One team, one dream’. Diverse experience and shared responsibility add up to a better solution. #TwoSuppliersOneTeam #DrupalSouth

Try using Pinto on your next Drupal project to dramatically speed up how fast you can theme a site. Check out Adam’s blog posts on Pinto to find out more. www.previousnext.com.au/blog/next-le... #DrupalSouth #ThemingWithPinto

To set up #Pinto, 1. Define a namespace for object discovery in services.yml. 2. Create an Enum to register Theme Objects. 3. And optionally, use the Components module to define a Twig namespace to reference templates in a design system such as Storybook. #DrupalSouth #ThemingWithPinto

Describing PreviousNext theme objects: 1. a framework for Object Oriented Theming. 2. Auto converts Theme Objects (PHP classes) into Drupal theme definitions and render arrays. 3. Developers interact with PHP classes rather than arrays. #DrupalSouth #ThemingWithPinto
