Collaborate and Share with HQ

At the Dream Corner, you can meet HQers and other community members, interact, share thoughts and ideas about the Umbraco CMS.

 

Draw with Niels

Available: Wednesday at 13:30 and 17:00; Thursday at 09:00, 11:15, and 16:45

To help conceptualize your ideas, our UI/UX Guru, Niels Lyngsø, will be around to listen and help bring them on paper. 

What do we exactly mean by “idea”? An idea can be anything, all dreams are welcome. They can be vague or concrete:

  • Maybe it's a scenario with no solution or maybe you already know how it should be done but are looking for input from others.
  • Maybe your idea feels too big or too unrealistic, and only drawing it and talking about it can help give it a form.
  • Maybe you don’t have any ideas, but you’re feeling a bit curious about the Dream Corner and want to listen to other people’s ideas.

 

Contribute / Learn about contributing to your favorite CMS with Sebastiaan 

Available: Wednesday at 13:30 and 17:00; Thursday at 11:15, 15:45, and 16:45

  •  Your first pull request, the highlights

So you're ready to send us a correction, either updated code or change in the documentation, a translation, maybe. If you've never done this before it can seem a little bit daunting, so our Head of PR (pull requests) Sebastiaan will show how it's done in 5 to 10 minutes.

We're expecting interaction as well, so bring your burning questions or answer the questions on the teaser banners to get the conversation started! Yes, it's totally okay to just hang out and listen and learn something new.

  •  Behind the scenes of a pull request

You've submitted a pull request, what happens next? In the timespan of about 5 to 10 minutes our Head of PR (pull requests) Sebastiaan will show you all the things you normally don't get to see. There will be GitHub labels, git command line wrangling and head scratching.

We're expecting interaction as well, so bring your burning questions or answer the questions on the teaser banners to get the conversation started! Yes, it's totally okay to just hang out and listen and learn something new.
