Why DrupalCon London Codesprint was so good

Confession: I'm not a coder, and I love code sprints. Previously, I wrote about how Awesome BoFs are, but really, the best part of DrupalCon is: The Code Sprint. And London's was a great example.

Creating a Carousel on Drupal Gardens
Posted on jeudi, juillet 21, 2011 by Rob Loach RSS
At Acquia, we created a Drupal Showcase site to display some of the most beautiful Drupal websites around. We wanted to highlight some of the more popular sites in a featured carousel when people visit the site.
