My latest blog post
To add theme support to Retrofit, I had to dive into how Drupal handles template overrides by themes. I realized I had no idea. So I dove in and wrote about how it works!
How do theme template overrides in Drupal work?
In Drupal, with themes, you can override default template output by copying, pasting, and customizing those templates. It works, but how? I thought I always knew how this worked. But I realized I didn't when I dove into supporting Drupal 7 themes with Retrofit.
Interesting links
- Who Is Behind PHP
- I enjoyed this article breaking down how the PHP project operates.
- Navigating PHP Deprecations: A Developer's Guide (2023)
- I like how this article explains deprecations and how to handle them. I also never considered deprecations to be used as nudges to promote better ways of writing code for upgrades.
