orkjerns blogg: Creating nodes with images using phonegap and services

http://orkjern.com

A lot of different people has started experimenting with Phonegap and Drupal. You have Jeff Linwood and his Drupal plugin for Phonegap for iOS, and I just discovered Drupalgap as I was planning this post the last weeks, which does more or less (actually it does more, but not all) some of the same things I will try to do in this post.
If you want to get up and running real quick, Drupalgap seems great. If you want to learn the code behind it, and extend it yourself (this was my motivation), keep reading.

Deeson Group: Designing a responsive conference schedule for DrupalCon Denver

http://www.deeson.co.uk

One of the most important and complex aspects of a DrupalCon is the schedule. An enormous amount of work goes into getting it right – from the huge number of session submissions, which have to be reviewed and selected by the track chairs and their teams, to the people whose job it is to carefully consider and decide time slots for all of them.

Once all of this work has taken place, the schedule then needs to be presented, in print, on meter boards, posters and in the delegate guide, as well as on the website and mobile app.

Friendly Machine: Hey Drupal, You Forgot Something

http://friendly-machine.com

The most basic function of a content management system is the ability to create a page. However, this fundamental activity of website building is often an unexpected hassle for new Drupal users. Yeah, I'm talking about the lack of a built-in rich text editor.
I know there are some strong feelings in the Drupal community about this, but let me try to persuade you that whatever the philosophical or technical reasons for not including a default editor, they're hurting adoption of Drupal and needlessly creating a usability issue for those who are evaluating the platform.

Mediacurrent: When disaster strikes, strike it back

http://www.mediacurrent.com

I knew the moment my laptop didn't wake from sleep mode something was amiss. Having retired to my office safe haven for the evening I just wanted to wrap up a few items, log my time and call it a night - the basic end to any Drupal developer's day. My Macbook, however, had other plans.

Pantheon Systems: Updating Drupal Core on Pantheon

https://getpantheon.com

With a new Drupal Core release out, it's worth reminding people just how easy it is to pull an update if you're using Pantheon:

One click and you're done! This is the beauty of starting a project off the canonical git history.
Also, of note - updating the stone-age way (unpacking a tarball from Drupal.org and overwriting all your core files) won't give good results. This will stop on the PRESSFLOW_SETTINGS auto-configuration system we use to connect to databases and other external services. Take the path of least resistance: it's also the best practice!

Let's take a closer look at how developers can create their own entities using the Entity API module, which is a great toolbox.

Drupal core announcements: Mobile Initiative: Minimal Viable Product

Certainly, there are some fantastic contributed modules that already make Drupal a great starting point for mobile solutions; modules like Mobile Tools, Domain Access, Responsive Images, as well as a whole slew of new ones that have been released in the past few months. But in order for a CMS to earn the moniker "mobile-friendly", setting it all up needs to be easy.
