When I started making sites with Drupal 8 I missed a special body class that I sometime need for theming as well as other times, and that's the language body class. When making multilingual sites this comes in handy sometimes.

Furthermore we talked about the conference itself, highlighted some of the sessions we attended and also covered the upcoming release of Drupal 8 RC1 (that was released two days ago). You can… Read more...
