Watch the latest videos from DNN Dave...
This month, we'll be recapping DNN Summit 2022 and then we'll take some time to highlight a few exciting community projects. Trust us, they are worth knowing about and getting involved with!
When it comes to websites, powered by DNN of course, there is so much to consider. And that consideration goes way beyond the technical bits (though these are super important too). Do you perhaps "think like a dev"? Do you rely on "starter designs"? How is your "branding acumen"? Have you brushed up on "color theory"? Do you wear "the marketing hat"? Have you considered "accessibility"? Do things like "user experience", "CTAs", the "customer journey", and "conversations" come into the picture? Oh, and let's not forget about "SEO" and "SEM"! In this session, we'll touch on why ALL of these should at least be in the conversation. We'll share tactics and tips for "doing things right"!
In this session, we'll build a mobile app using DNN as the backend! This session will provide a foundation and open-source building blocks upon which you can use for more robust use cases.
Let's face it, in today's open-source project climate, the feeling of having to be a GitHub expert is real! Not only that, it can be quite intimidating as a non-developer when interacting with dev gurus! So how do I effectively participate, even if I am not a developer? In this session, we will discuss common protocols for open-source collaboration with developers and non-developers alike. We will cover the basics of GitHub (and Git). We'll discuss non-code-based contributions and interaction. We'll sprinkle in some real-world, working exercises to give you actual hands-on experience. Finally, we'll round off the session with a few more complex scenarios you may run into from time to time. You'll walk away from this session with more confidence in becoming an effective open-source project participant!

Bringing overall strategic direction for the DNN Platform project and coordination between all leadership teams. As the DNN Platform and DNN Community evolves, new ideas and technologies will surface. These are great and it is essential to have a "gatekeeper" funnel to ensure all parties are in the loop, providing feedback, and are contributing to any proposed changes in direction or special project efforts. Learn more about the exciting special projects underway and on the horizon.
