Drupal Contributions - A Pragmatic Approach to the Issue Queue
summary
A non-coder shows that creating an issue, making a branch, generating a patch and uploading it to drupal.org takes under 15 minutes: clone repo, edit README, git diff -> patch, attach to issue node, test with SimplyTestMe, and mark RTBC when the patch applies. Demonstrates a Chrome extension dreditor that adds review buttons and prefilled templates. Notes the GitLab migration timeline as 18–24 months and that the demo patch applies and is accepted for review.
