Hey, let's say I initiated new Drupal project locally using official ddev instructions. Smooth and clean experience, all good. Now, what to do next? I would like to start develop - turn off twig and any other caching, enable debugging, ensure that .gitignore is prepare for a composer-managed project, configure config_sync_directory so i can store entire site configuration in a git.
Nothing special I would say - just a normal way of working on a stuff as a developer, while keeping the best practices.
And the question is: Where I can find some official docs so I do not have to use a tribal knowledge or guess whether I configured my gitignore, settings and services files correctly? Where i can read such an infos like why there is a dot in third line of .gitignore, after /vendor.?
Did I missed something or this part is not well documented?

Recently I audited a Drupal codebase containing a lot of custom form code and the author relied upon front-end validation way too often. You always want to validate form submissions server-side as well. I'm posting this because I sense that this change in Drupal 12 may prove impactful for many sites. Check your form validation code!

Creating and editing a Frontpage or flexible Landing Page has always been a struggle in Drupal. Layout Builder has been left unfinished and (layout_)paragraphs is quite an investment upfront. Now that we have SDCs, we can reuse components and the best of all: Two major Drupal page builders are reaching maturity quickly: Canvas and Display Builder.
This is the third part of or Canvas vs Display Builder series that covers the three most prolific use cases we could think of. But pretty sure it will not be the last part!
