About this talk

In this talk, Pierre Dureau discusses how Drupal Core is enhancing its adoption of design-system related APIs, starting with the SDC initiative in 2023, which significantly transforms the theming workflow. He explores the challenges of implementing design systems in Drupal themes and showcases the new APIs being introduced, such as SDC for UI components, the Icon API, and Style Utilities, which will continue to evolve through 2025. The speaker explains how these advancements are decoupling theming from the core application, thus improving the front-end developer experience and making themes more reusable. Dureau also examines both current and future display building tools, illustrating how to effectively use a Drupal theme within the Drupal API and Admin UI.
