direct LinkTopics
- Review Chad's goals for the previous week
- DDEV performance improvements
 - Install Drupal 10
 - Install drupal/core-dev
 - Configure and test phpcs
 - Test phpstan
 - settings.local.php
 - Install Devel module
 
 - Review Chad's questions
- Rancher Desktop appears to be holding on to port 443 after I installed it. Although I changed the port to something else, do you have any suggestions to update the setup to use ports 443 and 80 instead?
 - How are tools like phpcs and PHPStan used by the Drupal community for contrib? Are they a part of drupal.org's testing automation?
 - Starting a new D10 website from scratch in DDEV is one thing … How would I typically work with an existing D10 website? Do I start with the community config, then overwrite the code, database, and files? Is there a better approach?
 
 - Tasks for the upcoming week
- Install Drush using Composer
 - Examples module
 - routes/controllers/forms
- Review: https://www.drupal.org/docs/drupal-apis/routing-system/introductory-drupal-routes-and-controllers-example
 - Go through the "Page example" module from the Examples module.
 
 - Check back for "docker context use rancher-desktop" stuff.
 - Create a new Git repository for your D10 site with Composer dependencies not committed to the repository.
- .gitignore stuff
 - cp web/example.gitignore web/.gitignore
 - Create ./.gitignore with:
 
 
 
        /vendor
        /web/core
        /web/modules/contrib/
        /web/themes/contrib/
