Drupal 8 and Symfony
Let's talk
In this talk I aim to provide a brief overview of the various Symfony components that Drupal 8 is using, a quick introduction of converting Symfony bundles to Drupal modules, and a short note on how we as developers can improve our own modules by implementing Symfony conventions.
- Components in use by Drupal 8
- ClassLoader
- Console
- CssSelector
- DependencyInjection
- EventDispatcher
- HttpFoundation
- HttpKernel
- Process
- Routing
- Serializer
- Translation
- Validator
- Yaml
- Improving module development with Symfony conventions
- Build your modules based on Symfony for Drupal 8 and don't just convert them from Drupal 7

Who am I?
I am quite new to Drupal development as I started with Amazee Labs back in August 2016, doing both Drupal 7 and Drupal 8 development. However I've been developing Zend-Framework 1 and 2 applications for the past 4 years. I studied Computer Science, worked in CERN, and I speak English, French, and Bulgarian, I also enjoy snowboarding which makes this camp a great place to give my first talk. You can follow me on d.o/twitter as: dan2k3k4
As I still consider myself a beginner with Drupal, I'll try to keep this talk as beginner-friendly as possible.
