View session detailsSession overview
Drupal Site Building with AI and Canvas is a practical look at building production-ready pages in Drupal using Canvas (a visual page builder) alongside AI-assisted workflows. You’ll see how to go from a blank canvas to a structured, on-brand layout, while keeping content reusable, accessible, and easy for editors to maintain.
We’ll cover how components, regions, and layout patterns work together, how to keep a consistent design system, and how AI can help accelerate drafting, refactoring, and iterating on page content without sacrificing quality.
