Thursday, May 22, 2025, 8:30 AM to 5 PM
Contribution Day at MidCamp is an opportunity to get-together to focus on in-depth topics and work on projects.
Contribution efforts are an important part of Drupal's growth and are also a great opportunity to get involved because others are on hand to help you contribute. Come and collaborate with other Drupal community members!
- Coffee (and other morning beverages)!
- Contrib in room 220! Reach out on Slack if you'd like to lead an initiative.
- Lunch (provided)
- Evening: Community-led social TBD.
Who Should Come?
If you are interested in contributing to Drupal core or contributed projects, this is your chance. You don't need to be a developer to contribute; we need project managers, bug reporters, QA testers, people to help write documentation, etc. If you are a developer, but not sure where to get started, we have mentors to show you the ropes.
If you feel new and would love helping hands, the best day to start is the Friday contribution day. This is the biggest day for contributing with many people collaborating, and different opportunities based on experience level.
If you know the tools but still could use help picking issues and going through the process, we will have experienced contributors there to help newer folks.
Specific details below.
What Topics Will We Focus On?
There will be a general contribution space as well as rooms for selected initiatives.

Below are the contribution initiatives we will focus on at MidCamp. If you are attending camp and want to lead an initiative not listed below, shoot us an email and we will announce it here.
Initiatives
- Member Platform is a new community initiative to work on an out-of-the-box membership site template or recipes for communities. The initiative is currently focused on contributing to the CRM module. This is a great opportunity to get involved in planning, designing, manually testing, discovering, and coding for the Drupal community. The Member Platform organizes on Drupal Slack Channel: #member-platform
- Event Platform is a suite of modules to provide out-of-the-box event handling in Drupal. The project is transitioning to using a more recipe-based approach.
- Backdrop CMS is a fork of Drupal 7 plus configuration and built-in layout functionality. Several contributors in the Backdrop CMS project are here at MidCamp. Tim (stpaultim) is available to help you contribute back to this project.
- Your initiative, theme or module here! Write a topic, sit at a table, and work with the community!
Thank you for your interest in giving back to the Drupal project. Everyone can make a meaningful contribution today!
