Drupal Front End: Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated

Development & Performance Beginner

During the transition from Drupal 7 to 9 there was much hate for the front end experience of Drupal Development. What with Twig being new, the dependence on jQuery, and limitations to CSS, many believed that Decoupled was the new way to go.

Now we have a better understanding of Twig, Single Directory Components, and more options with native CSS. As well, now we have better caching and libraries. In this talk I will highlight these technologies which make the Frontend experience once again the way to go.
