Web Directions covers a lot of ground when it comes to design and technology conferences within Australia. Right now they have seven conferences targeted towards designers, developers, leadership, product and culture.
Web Directions Summit is the big one — it's their conference that brings the whole team together. This year it was held in Sydney at the fantastic new International Convention Centre (ICC) in Darling Harbour.
Web Directions Design was held over three days in April 2018 with great presentations spanning a broad range of topics across the design industry. Some were focused on emerging technologies such as eye tracking, Blockchain and voice UI, others on the importance of research and ethics in design.
The PreviousNext team are gearing up for our annual pilgrimage to DrupalGov Canberra, being held on Monday March 27 at the QT Hotel. With more than 200 tickets already sold, the conference is set to be one of the largest Drupal events in the Southern Hemisphere and a testament to how significant Drupal is now within the Australian Government.
Since 2012, PreviousNext has been developing and maintaining the aGov distribution for Drupal 7. aGov provides a means for Australian Government organisations to meet their accessibility and security obligations with free and open-source software hosted on the platform of their choice.
In the last few weeks we have been working on the Drupal 8 version, and are happy to announce today the first Alpha release!
In this post we share some of our experiences developing a Drupal 8 distribution.
We’re pleased to announce the release of the third full version of aGov, the open Drupal CMS for Australian Government websites, available for free download now from Drupal.org.
I recently attained the Certified Scrum Professional (CSP) certification and found the process a good opportunity to reflect on what led me to Scrum. It was also a chance to take pause and consider our industry approach to project management.
We’re pleased to announce the full release of aGov 2.0 on Drupal.org and the AWS Marketplace. aGov 2.0 is designed for Australian Government agencies who require a choice of hosting platform, full access to the code base, the flexibility to customise functionality and integration with third party systems.
As part of our development and support workflow, we have gradually built up a Continuous Integration (CI) platform to run automated tests and builds. It’s become such an essential part of our ever-growing toolkit that we are now offering it as a service to select customers.
One of the best things about running a sustainable company is our ability to give back to Drupal, our community and the environment, and this year has been no different.
