Global Drupal Training day - II

Twig: The Clean Break: Transitioning from site building to theming. Understanding how Twig removes logic from the presentation layer, making themes secure, reusable, and accessible to non-PHP developers.

The Golden Rule: Never Hack Core: Introducing the concept of Hooks and Plugins. Learning how to "intercept" Drupal's processes to change behavior (like altering a form or redirecting a user) without ever touching the core software files.

Configuration vs. Content: The "Aha!" moment of Drupal 8+. Understanding that "Configuration" (Views, Content Types) belongs in code (YAML files), while "Content" (Articles, Users) stays in the database—enabling safe deployment across environments.

Everything is an Entity: Moving beyond simple "Nodes." Grasping the Unified Entity API, where Users, Comments, and Taxonomy Terms share the same underlying structure, allowing you to attach fields and manage display settings on anything.
