Have you played around with your first Drupal site, been to an "Introduction to Drupal" training, or scored your first Drupal job and not sure what to do next?

Tobie Langel is a world-leading expert and international speaker on open source and standardization. He advises some of the biggest names in tech (Google, Microsoft, Mozilla, Intel, Cisco), promising startups (GitLab, Airtable, Coil), industry organizations (OpenJS Foundation, OASIS, W3C) and nonprofits (Organization for Ethical Source, Ushahidi, Omidyar Network), either pro bono or through his consultancy, UnlockOpen.

Open Source technologies build the foundation of the free and open internet, but many are developed by only a single maintainer or a very small community.

Despite the critical role these tools play in the internet ecosystem, they are perpetually under-funded and under-supported.

The similarity to other “system relevant” professions is striking: The more we need them to keep the system running, the less we are willing to appreciate and sufficiently fund them.

Right now, proprietary systems and vendors are winning pitches in government and elsewhere that should be no-brainers for Open Source solutions. What comes next, and what do we have to do to make sure we can continue to make a positive difference with Open Source in the future?

Open Source technology, practices, and thinking have revolutionized how we innovate, collaborate, and do business. The impact goes beyond our daily work and paying our rent. Open source is everywhere; we won! But there's a downside.

LocalGov Drupal has been growing quickly in Britain and Ireland as a platform for Local Authorities: so far 44 participating councils, and 16 suppliers, with even more using it.

Ever wondered how to make sure your routes are in the correct language when working on a NextJS frontend (using pages router)? We've had this issue a couple of times as well. In this session you will get an overview of how we ensure that our frontend can power the correct names of paths.

You'll walk away from this session with a good idea on how to implement this in your own applications. Some knowledge about how next js routers work is required.
