DrupalCon is the heartbeat of the Drupal Community. It’s an expression of the Drupal Community’s commitment to software innovation and collaboration.

“It is a once a year time for all Classic Developers to interact with developers from around the globe in one place,” explains Mark Shropshire, Development & DevOps Manager for Classic. “It also provides a great chance for the team to recharge and discuss improvements to be made to our processes as well as recruit new developers.”
