Irina Povjakel's Drupalcon Lille 2023 Experience

Staff Reporter

Irina Povjakel, a developer at ComputerMinds, recently shared her firsthand experiences of Drupalcon Lille 2023 on the company blog. In her reflective account, she discusses her initial expectations, the global Drupal community, and the valuable sessions that left a lasting impact.

For Irina, Drupalcon Lille marked her inaugural foray into the world of large-scale Drupal events. She wasn't quite sure what to expect but eagerly anticipated the experience. Her verdict? Drupalcon exceeded all her expectations in the best possible way.

At the outset, she recalls her awe at the sheer number of Drupal enthusiasts in attendance. However, her humility soon gave way to spirited conversations with exhibitors, contributors, and fellow community members. This, she notes, was an excellent opportunity to immerse herself in Drupal and partake in enlightening sessions and informal discussions.

One of the highlights for Irina was the diversity of attendees. Drupalcon Lille attracted not just Europeans but participants from all corners of the globe, underscoring the international appeal of this Drupal gathering.

Irina's article also touches on the problem many attendees face—choosing which sessions to attend. With topics spanning from Drupal basics to deep technical skills, making a selection became a challenge. Fortunately, Irina expresses her relief that all sessions are available for replay on the OnAir platform, ensuring she won't miss out on anything.

Among the sessions that resonated with her, Irina mentioned Search API Decoupled, CKEditor 5 plugin, and Dashboard, leaving her with intriguing ideas to apply to her work at ComputerMinds. Some sessions, she notes, offered fresh perspectives on what her team is already doing, like the performance audit session, which served as a beneficial review of common issues faced in her work.
