Module 1: Professional Development Environment

  • Beyond Localhost: Setting up a team-ready DDEV environment (custom commands, service integration like Redis/Solr/Mailhog).
  • Composer Mastery: Dependency management, patching core/modules, handling merge conflicts, and understanding composer.lock vs. composer.json in production.
  • The "Senior" Difference: We don't just install; we script the installation so it’s reproducible across any server.
