    Talking Drupal #547 - Why Developers Don't Choose Drupal

    In episode #547, guest JD Flynn joins us to discuss why developers don't choose Drupal, focusing on Drupal adoption, discoverability, and outdated perceptions from Drupal 6/7. JD cites survey data showing low interest among non-Drupal developers, arguing Drupal's biggest problem is invisibility and that developers often pre-filter it due to PHP stigma and friction getting started.

There's a module for that. Module name/project name: PDFa11y Brief history How old: created in Feb 2026 by Joshua Mitchell (joshuami), a friend of this podcast Versions available: 1.0.1, which works with Drupal 10.2 and 11 Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage in process Test coverage Number of open issues: none Usage stats: 0 sites Module features and usage With the PDFa11y module installed, you can set its configuration, including whether to enable or disable automatic checking on upload, whether to block uploads that fail checks or just show warnings, a minimum PDF version requirement, and which accessibility checks to run The module also sets creates three new permissions, Administer PDF accessibility settings, Run PDF accessibility checks, and View PDF accessibility report Each PDF media item has an "Accessibility" tab where anyone with the necessary permissions can view the check results Under the hood PDFa11y uses the smalot/pdfparser library to extract data from PDF files Many sites rely on PDFs to make available content that they aren't able to migrate directly into Drupal content, so making sure that doesn't introduce its own accessibility regressions is an important step

There's a module for that. Module name/project name: Field Widget Actions Brief history How old: created in Oct 2025 by Artem Dmitriiev (a.dmitriiev) of 1x Internet, a founding member of the AI Initiative Versions available: 1.0.0-alpha1 and 1.3.0, both of which works with Drupal 10.3 and 11.1 or newer Maintainership Actively maintained Security coverage Test coverage Documentation - includes Markdown files that explain how to set up and extend its capabilities Number of open issues: 12 open issues, 4 of which are bugs Usage stats: 24 sites Module features and usage With this module installed, a site builder can attach action buttons to form fields in Drupal entity forms, for example for creating nodes or taxonomy terms What happens when you click a button depends on what processor you associate with it, and the settings you configure for the processor. Processors can be provided by other modules, like AI or ECA. For example, you could attach a button to a tags field that when clicked will send the content of the body field to an AI agent that will return a set of suggested tags. Or, you could have it trigger an ECA model for a more deterministic flow This is all done using a plugin framework implemented by Field Widget Actions, so you also create your own custom processors to be used with action buttons One of the things that got me excited about working with the team behind Augmentor AI was the approach that module used to make AI something a user would manually trigger, and then can curate before the suggestions are saved. Field Widget Actions allows that same approach to be implemented with the AI ecosystem that is growing by leaps and bounds thanks to the team involved with Drupal's AI Initiative It's worth noting that Field Widget Actions used to be a submodule of the AI project, so if you're using a version of that older than 2.0, you may already have Field Widget Actions available in your codebase
