Version control systems manage change in your application's code base, but what about changes to the database? Managing changes to the database between environments is challenging. Luckily for us, Drupal 8 has introduced the Configuration Management System, which aims to solve this problem for site admins and developers alike.
In this session we will start from the beginning by exploring what it means to manage configuration and why you would want to do so. Then we'll take a deep dive into the different components of the configuration management system in Drupal 8 and how these differ from what we had in Drupal 7. Finally we'll wrap up with some actionable tips on how to get the most out of the configuration management system on your next project, as well as an overview of the contributed module space around configuration management.
No prior knowledge is necessary to attend this session, we'll start with the basics and move up from there. By the time you leave you will have a solid foundation for understanding and fully leveraging the configuration management system on your next Drupal 8 project.
