DrupalSouth Melbourne 2025: Contribution Day Opens Conference with Community Collaboration

DrupalSouth Melbourne 2025 is set to bring together developers, designers, and enthusiasts for a vibrant three-day event from March 11 to March 13. The conference will be held at ACMI (Australian Centre for the Moving Image), with the much-anticipated Contribution Day taking place beforehand on March 11 at the Multicultural Hub, opposite Queen Victoria Market.

Contribution Day is an opportunity for attendees to collaborate, learn, and contribute to the Drupal open-source project. It is open to all, regardless of experience level or technical background, and encourages both in-person and remote participation. With limited spots available at the venue, early registration is recommended. Virtual attendees can join discussions via Slack and Zoom, and details will be shared closer to the date.

The event runs from 9 AM to 3 PM (AEDT) and will be held in the Multicultural Hub's Blue Room, Red Room, and Community Kitchen. Groups will be organized by topics of interest, allowing participants to work on tasks that align with their skills and aspirations.

Contribution Day plays a crucial role in the evolution of Drupal, fostering improvements and innovation within the open-source platform. Participation also contributes toward Certified Partner Program contribution levels, making it a valuable experience for individuals and businesses alike.

For those needing a development environment, Docker Compose is the recommended setup. Additional resources are provided for those who prefer DDEV. Anyone experiencing setup issues is encouraged to seek assistance via Slack ahead of the event.
