Drupal Development
I’ve been building websites, applications, and online systems with Drupal since 2010 - which in Drupal years probably makes me something close to a dinosaur already. Over the past 15+ years I’ve worked across multiple Drupal generations, from older procedural builds to modern Drupal 10 and 11 architectures. This section is where I share practical Drupal knowledge, including custom modules, debugging tricks, workflow improvements, performance optimizations, and the countless small fixes that usually come only from maintaining real production systems for years.Alongside Drupal itself, a large part of the work involves the surrounding infrastructure that keeps everything running reliably. That includes Ubuntu servers, Nginx configurations, deployment workflows, caching, SSL, database tuning, automation scripts and more.
