DrupalCon Dublin 2016: Building a co-lingual website - lessons learned from ireland.ie

This session explores the innovative co-lingual approach implemented for the 1916 commemoration website, ireland.ie, built on Drupal 7. The speaker discusses how to present English and Irish (Gaeilge) side by side, addressing the challenges of managing a dual-language site from both the front and back end. Attendees receive insights into the appropriateness of a co-lingual website, strategies for handling content presentation using views, and the importance of a strong editorial experience utilizing the paragraphs module. The talk also reflects on lessons learned and how these strategies have evolved with the transition to Drupal 8.
