Drupalcamp Kortrijk 2026

Joris Vercammen

I’m a web developer based in Belgium. I share my time working between calibrate and codana.

I started doing web development in summer of 2008, and I’ve mostly worked with PHP as a backend language since.

Starting in 2012, I picked up Drupal as a CMS and I’ve stuck with that community.
I picked up a few responsabilities in that community since, mostly with Search API and Facets modules in particular.

Currently my open source focus is spent around config validation in Drupal Core, or as part of the Drupal User Group Belgium.

I am a part of the board of Drupal Belgium User Group Association (DUGBE vzw).

A Practical Deep-Dive into Drupal’s Configuration Schema
Joris Vercammen

Drupal's configuration schema layer has been a stable underpinning for custom data structures, in this session we'll go over the basics and end up explaining all the possible ways to use it. Basic understanding of drupal's configuration system is helpful, but not required. We will be seeing a lot yaml in this session, but otherwise there will be almost no code.

We’ll start with the fundamentals and quickly progress to advanced concepts and best practices that will level up your configuration schema skills
