Commercial Progression presents Hooked on Drupal, “Episode 10: Summer of Drupal with Special Guests Hillary Lewandowski and Michael Zhang".  In this episode of Hooked on Drupal, the usual crew is joined by two new members to the CP team.  Hillary Lewandowski, the latest member to the development team brings her wisdom from a formal education in computer science.  

Michael Zhang of Northville DECA, the world's happiest intern

Additionally, Michael Zhang is one of two summer interns from Northville High School and an active member of Northville DECA, with a focus on marketing.  Michael also published a personal blog post. In tell-all fashion, Michael describes his experiences interning at Commercial Progression.

We experienced this year's DrupalCon vicariously through our last Michigan Drupal meetup and our previous podcast with Steve Burge from OSTraining.  This summer proves to be quite busy with new team members, projects, and Drupal 8 investigations.

As the Commercial Progression team size grows, our development team has begun to specialize.  Brad has focused on developing new processes for site architecture and shares his discoveries for preparing a Drupal project for design and development. Other team members share their personal project subject matter.

OOP In Drupal 8

In addition to working with the new WYSIWYG Fields and Conditional Fields,  Hillary shares some of her thoughts and computer science background with Object Oriented Programming and Drupal 8 in her latest blog post.

Personalize Module

Chris and Shane discuss the Acquia contrib Personalize module based on Lift technology for content personalization via URL based campaign parameters, geography, visitor cookies, A/B or Multi-variate testing, and a host of other variable session data.

Paragraphs Module

Inspired by Jeff Eaton and the Battle for the Body Field DrupalCon presentation, Brad dug into the Paragraphs module and put together a popular paragraphs blog post with some best practices for winning the battle for the body field.  When Brad is not fighting the good fight for the supremacy of the Paragraphs module, he has also created an automated competitive marketing intelligence research script… yeah I know, really.
