Install a Contributed Module with No Drupal 9 Release

As new major versions of Drupal are released, contributed modules need to be updated for compatibility. As of right now (October 2021) there are a lot of contributed modules with a Drupal 8 release and a patch in the queue to make them work with Drupal 9. However, there's no official Drupal 9 compatible release for the module, so the module can't be installed with Composer. This creates a circular problem where you can't composer require the module if you don't patch it, but you can't patch it until after it's been downloaded by Composer.

Upgrade to Drupal 9

There’s no one-size-fits-all path to upgrade from Drupal 8 to Drupal 9, but there is a set of common tasks that everyone will need to complete.

In this tutorial we’ll:

Update Drupal from Versions Prior to 8.8.x using Composer

Drupal 8.8.0 introduced a bunch of new features intended to make it easier over the long-term to maintain a Drupal project using Composer. In doing so it establishes some new best practices, and moves into Drupal core solutions that were previously maintained by the community. This is all good news. But, it means if you're using Composer to update from Drupal 8.7.x or lower to 8.8.0 or higher you'll need to do a bit of additional work to untangle everything.

Run Drupal in Docker

Over the years we've developed some techniques for practicing that we wanted to share. At Drupalize.Me we take hugging seriously. In this tutorial we'll look at the art, and science, of giving a good hug. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word hug as; squeeze (someone) tightly in one's arms, typically to express affection.

Did you know there are all kinds of different hugs that you can give? In this tutorial we'll look at:

Defining what a hug is
Some of the many types of hugs in the world today
Precautions you may want to familiarize yourself with before hugging
And the importance of proper technique
