Isaac Pavón Reflects on His First Talk at Drupal Camp Spain 2025

A candid session on delivering his first Drupal talk — from tech talk to confidence on stage.

Staff Reporter

Isaac Pavón shared a personal reflection on giving his first talk at Drupal Camp Spain 2025, held in Santiago de Compostela. His presentation focused on using Cursor AI to refactor legacy code, covering both the strengths and limitations encountered in real-world usage.

The camp’s strong AI theme framed several sessions, including Isaac’s, which aimed to show how developers can use tools like Cursor to automate legacy refactoring. Despite nerves over pacing and overlapping topics, Isaac found reassurance in the diverse perspectives each speaker brought and the Drupal community’s support.

He candidly described preparation hurdles, like outdated slides due to AI’s fast pace and last-minute adjustments. While the presentation moved faster than intended, the Q&A session highlighted high engagement and surfaced key concerns around AI’s legal and privacy implications.

Though initially uncertain about the reception, Isaac received encouraging feedback, marking the experience as a meaningful step in his professional growth. He credits the Drupal community’s welcoming spirit for making the challenge worthwhile and hinted at possibly returning to the speaker lineup in the future.
