New directions for Config Split and UI Patterns
Last week we attended and sponsored the Drupal Developer Days in Seville where we also had two well attended sessions. Introducing the UI Patterns module: use atomic UI components everywhere in Drupal 8 and Advanced Configuration Management with Config Split et al. attached here are the promised slides, as well as a few updates about the modules.
A new structure and new possibilities for Config Split
For current users of the Config Split module it means that they should remove the custom service swapping as part of the update and then apply the database updates which will install Config Filter (you already downloaded it with composer update, right?).
Expose atomic UI patterns as plugins and use them as drop-in templates in your Drupal 8 projects
Establishing an atomic design system in your project is one of the most effective way to build a consistent and maintainable user interface.

One of the nice things that happened during Drupal Ironcamp in Prague last week was the first beta release of the Configuration Split that I started developing a few months ago.
