DrupalCon North America 2021 - Rescuing a Module: How We Revived an Abandoned Project

Speaker Session

Event Details

This event occurred on Tue, Apr 13, 2021

What happens when a project used by over 30,000 websites stops being supported? A contribution opportunity arises. This session followed a group of developers as they revived a stagnant module and contributed to open source for the first time. Learn how they added features, including accessibility and keyboard navigation, for this powerful mega menu tool. Gain an understanding of how the module's community came back to life and how contributing isn't as scary as you may believe. Maybe they can even convince you to take over an abandoned module yourself!
