If you watched the DrupalCon Vienna keynote and wanted to actually try the stuff shown on stage (Canvas, AI workflows, site templates, orchestration, etc.), we just published a working demo you can spin up in seconds.

What you get:
• A fully configured Drupal 11 site modeled after the keynote
• Canvas + AI features wired up (AI requires adding a secret in DevPanel)
• Runs in a cloud dev environment — no Docker, no local setup
• You can break it, inspect it, edit it, rebuild it
• Good for learning, experimenting, or agency demos

Code repo:

Still missing some documentation, but you can get help in the #drupalforge Slack channel.

If you try it out, would love feedback — bugs, gotchas, missing pieces, suggestions.
We’re planning to iterate quickly.

I’ve been experimenting with ways to integrate AI into Drupal without dealing with local setup headaches.
Turns out, there’s a growing library of AI-powered Drupal templates that run entirely in the cloud — things like:

• Drupal Module Finder AI – recommends modules based on what you want to build
• Drupal Canvas + AI – AI-assisted page builder
• Agentic Testing Framework – uses AI to auto-test your Drupal site
• LocalGov + AI – explores civic-focused AI use cases …and many more.

Everything runs in the browser (Composer, Drush, and VS Code pre-installed), so you can launch a working Drupal instance in seconds to explore AI use cases.

Here’s the link if you want to poke around: drupalforge.org/ai

Curious if anyone else here has tried AI inside Drupal yet — what use cases do you think actually make sense?
