In your #Drupal controller, when you pass a User object to a Twig template, it's available there as an AccountProxy object, not a User object.
But I need access to the custom fields, so I need to preprocess or inject all field values into the template manually?
Both seem a silly amount of work just to inject a User object into a template.
For now a custom Twig filter that loads a user by id works, but also seems silly.
Am I missing something?
Made a ton of improvements to https://drupal.org/project/drupal_flake -
- start-config now installs your existing site from configuration
- xdrush triggers an xdebug session from drush
- update-flake makes it easy to get new features in the future
- Composer now visible to PHP, so Project Browser and auto updates work
- Updates to include block to avoid conflicts with other environments
Check it out! In some ways this is easier/faster than #ddev ! #drupal #nix

Take a few minutes and fill out the annual #drupal developer survey - it took me about 10 minutes and is available in many languages.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/drupal_developer_survey
Survey closes April 20.
One use of the results is to Drupal event organizers in determining topics that are of interest to the community.

Submit you session proposals for #DCAVL by April 14th!
Find a comfy 
, maybe a 
️, and settle in for a thoughtful read about how #drupal is a shark (old, but still evolving) and not a dinosaur.

@dominiquedc covers a lot of ground, including why Drupal’s AI strategy is sound, and why he doesn’t seem concerned about Drupal’s future.
Seriously, take some time and give this a read with your full attention.
Hey #Drupal friends:
Often you can no longer change a machine_name value once the form is saved.
Sometimes you *can* as long as the thing's machine name hasn't been used (like a list field option).
Is there any guidance on this? Recorded best practices? A name for distinguishing the two practices?
Looking to describe this with the appropriate terminology.
Thanks a bundle!
Op donderdag 17 april organiseren we in samenwerking met @developer, Code4NL en @drupal een #kennissessie over communitybuilding bij #Drupal:
Welke events activeren de community?
Hoe houden we contact en stimuleren we samenwerking?
Wat is de impact van community-inbreng, zowel technisch als niet-technisch?
Hoe verschilt de Nederlandse Drupal-community van de internationale, en hoe werken we samen?

Typography at Its Finest: the ABC of Adding Fonts to Your Drupal Website. #drupal
https://imagexmedia.com/blog/fonts-drupal-website
#Drupal is like Photoshop: work with it for over 20 years, still discover new stuff every day.
Today I learned:
\Drupal::service('country_manager')->getList()
returns:
[
'AC' => t('Ascension Island'),
'AD' => t('Andorra'),
'AE' => t('United Arab Emirates'),
...
]
Pretty handy if your data only contains country codes rather than complete country names.
So I did a thing. I've started a #Drupal project on https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal_scuba for #scubadivers. You see, I've attached some kind of diving adventure to the last two Drupal events I've attended. If you're a drupaller and a diver and you want to be added to the project, let me know. I *think* I'm going set something up for #DrupalColorado this July. And meet "Drupie" the dive octopus.

the interaction and suggestions were quite good
execution is expensive, I paid $1.16 for 20 minutes
I got annoyed a couple of times, because Claude did contradictory things
