Florida Drupal Camp 2025 logo

Backdrop CMS is excited to announce that we are a Bronze level sponsor for Florida Drupal Camp this coming Feb 21-23 in Orlando, Florida. The Backdrop CMS community has been participating in Florida Drupal Camp for over five years, offering sessions, training workshops and BOF sessions. We very much appreciate the community support that we’ve experienced attending this well organized camp that draws participants from across the country and around the world. 

If you are able to attend, we highly recommend participating in Florida Drupal Camp. This year, Laryn Kragt Bakker will be presenting a session called “Back(drop) to the Future.” Laryn is senior developer with Aten and a core committer to the Backdrop CMS project and a long time member of the community. 

Several BackropCMS community members will be at the camp and can answer your questions about Backdrop CMS, using AI in web development, migrations and other hot topics! 

“Backdrop CMS has been around for ~10 years now and has understandably made a concerted effort to emphasize certain aspects of the project that can appeal greatly to Drupal 7 site owners: backwards compatibility with existing code, an upgrade path, the affordability of the Backdrop upgrade process compared to a migration to modern Drupal, Wordpress, or something else. Those backward-looking considerations are very important for site-owners that are coming from Drupal 7. But what about looking ahead? Are there reasons why you may do well to consider Backdrop for particular projects whether or not it's coming from Drupal 7?” ~ From the session description for Back(drop) to the Future.
