The TYPO3 Core uses many parts of the Symfony PHP framework, so going there is a great way to learn, meet, exchange ideas, and discuss solutions for our CMS. SymfonyCon’s tagline is: “Share your best practices, experience and knowledge with Symfony.”

Susanne Moog, secretary of the TYPO3 Association Board and experienced TYPO3 Core developer, will attend the conference together with TYPO3 GmbH CTO Frank Nägler. We recommend Susanne's talk on Using Symfony/Messenger Standalone, Thursday, 7 December 2023, in the SensioLabs room.

The time has come: Together with e-pixler GmbH, the TYPO3 GmbH is officially launching the TYPO3 Solution Partner Roundtables!
The following topics will be discussed during this roundtable:

  • What's currently happening in TYPO3?

After the three-hour roundtable, the event will continue with a get-together.

Please note: This in a exclusive event for TYPO3 Solution Partners.

Every 15th of a month, the TYPO3 remote days are taking place. Members of the TYPO3 teams met online and collaborate. 

You’re Invited: Join Our Second Remote Sprint!

The second Best Practices Team remote sprint is happening on 15 December 2023. We'll meet on Slack for a day of general housework and working through our backlog. While we may not complete all our goals, this sprint is an excellent opportunity to learn and collaborate. If you are a newcomer to TYPO3 development, come along to gain insights into teamwork, GitHub, bug resolution, and automated testing.

When

The sprint will take place on 15 December 2023. We’ll kick off at 11:00 (CET) and we plan to finish at 17:00 (CET).

Where

The sprint is fully remote. We’ll meet in the TYPO3 Slack channel, #best-practice-team. Come prepared with your favorite IDE, have the EXT:tea extension installed and running, and make sure you’re familiar with the TYPO3 Coding Guidelines.

What

Łukasz will host the sprint. We’ll start with a quick check-in of participants, make sure everyone is set for success, then we’ll distribute the tasks among the attendees. If you’re a newcomer, there will be people to support you and answer questions.

We plan to work on these topics in the following order:

  1. runTest.sh
  2. Cleanup
  3. Make the extension conform to the best practices
  4. Implement changes related to docs

We probably won't complete all the goals, so the remaining tasks will be carried over to future work and sprints.

Your Benefits

Whether you are an experienced TYPO3 developer, or new to the CMS, there is always something to learn. Come along to this sprint and get real-world experience working with focus inside a team on an open published extension.

Participants of this sprint will learn-by-doing, in particular:

  • Using GitHub as a Git hosting and CI platform.
  • How to catch and fix bugs, covered by tests.
  • Best practices for extension development.
  • Fast end-to-end tests via TYPO3 testing framework functional tests.

Winter Is Coming — T3BOARD Is Coming! Save The Date!

The Diamond of CMS Meets the Diamond of the Alps

The TYPO3 community will meet again in Obergurgl, Ötztal, Tyrol, Austria 13–20 January 2024 for the 23rd T3BOARD event. Be part of an inspiring week with people from our vibrant community, on the slopes during the day and in sessions about TYPO3 and IT in the evenings! 

T3BOARD is the longest running event of the TYPO3 universe — the first one was held back in 2001 in Bad Gastein, Austria. 

Check Out the T3BOARD24 Website

Snowboard? sNOw Problem! 

You’re not a snowboarder? No problem! Skiers are welcome, and cross-country-skiers as well. Even if you do not like snow sports at all you'll find a decent amount of activities you could do in Ötztal during the day. There are always some people not visiting the slopes for a day. Whether you stay at THE MOSS or the Chalet Obergurgl next door, you might choose to visit the hotel spa area, go for a swim in the indoor pool or enjoy some time at the hotel bar with friends from the TYPO3 community.

Ötztal is a great playground and offers fun and adventure. Visit the famous Topmountain Crosspoint motorcycle museum right near the slopes, practice your best James Bond in Sölden, or chill out at the Aqua Dome in Längenfeld.

Visit the event website to find out more about the region, the accommodation options, and activities you could do! 

Knowledge Sharing At T3BOARD: Sessions and Topics

The T3BOARD event is more than skiing, boarding, and fun in the snow. An important aspect is sharing and creating knowledge. We try to hold two sessions during the day and one in the evening, covering TYPO3 topics as well as general IT topics such as AI, product strategy and GreenIT. 

Check out the talks from the previous event: T3BOARD23 Sessions 

This time we need YOU too! Got something to share with your community members? Let us know and we’ll get you on the schedule.

In many places, there is currently a mixture of "uncertainty in dealing with the framework conditions" and "no time in everyday life to tackle the change in a structured way". So that every agency doesn't have to build its own solutions, we thought: Let's tackle this together.

Let's do a workshop together on what AI means for us in everyday agency life. Internally and externally.

  • What does AI change in my agency?
  • How can I familiarise my colleagues and staff with the new systems?
  • What use cases already exist at the client and where do we see upselling potential?
  • What solutions already exist in the TYPO3 universe and what can we develop together?

We look forward to an afternoon together at the TYPO3 headquarters in Düsseldorf.
