I took a moment to reflect on 2025 — a big year for #Drupal, #AI, and community. From DrupalCon Atlanta to new tools like Drupal Canvas and major milestones like @talkingdrupal ’s 500th episode, there was a lot to be grateful for.

My Go-To Setup for Local Drupal Development with DDEV and Colima | Picozzi.com

As someone who frequently builds POCs and demos with Drupal, I’ve spent plenty of time spinning up local environments. A while back, I switched to DDEV as my go-to local dev tool after hearing great things—and it quickly became a core part of my workflow. It's fast, reliable, and makes managing Drupal projects a whole lot easier.In this post, I’ll walk you through how I set up a fresh local Drupal site using DDEV. Whether you're new to DDEV or just looking to streamline your Drupal dev setup, these steps will get you up and running in no time.

I was initially skeptical about #Drupal's #Starshot initiative. However, now I view it as a way for Drupal to deliver on it's promise to Ambitious Site Builders. Read more here: https://picozzi.com/notebook/2024/may/drupal-starshot-delivering-promise-ambitious-site-builders #OpenSource #Innovation
Drupal Starshot: Delivering on a promise to Ambitious Site Builders | Picozzi.com

For me the introduction of the Starshot initiative raised concerns about a potential divide in the community and not going far enough into the no code space. However, further exploration revealed that Starshot is not a separate version of Drupal but an enhancement built on Drupal Core. Features such as Recipes, Experience Manager, and Project Browser aim to simplify site building and encourage community growth. Making it seem that Starshot could deliver on the promise made to support Ambitious Site Builders.
