I was out last week so haven’t been active on issues. Trying to catch up with all the things going on and getting back to working on issues and the RTBC queue

SDC was committed to core :shipitparrot: now we’re still figuring out if it could be marked as beta experimental to ship it as an experimental module in Drupal 10.1.0

I think it would be useful to get a proposal for the width on https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3342816 📌 Adjust hardcoded widths in dialog modals Fixed from someone UX minded
Replace hardcoded 700px width in dialog modals

ckrina
Not 100% front-end, but this one needs some update to core & code review https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3265408 ✨ Provide an element that converts large radio/checkbox option to select list Needs work

Who should I talk to about off-canvas dialog things?
I'd like to do more than what I think is possible with it. Is there a maintainer for it I could pester with questions?

katannshaw

@ckrina@mherchel ^^

mherchel
Hmmm... maybe we could schedule some time with either @bnjmnm or @lauriii?
I can talk about the CSS and styling of it. But API wise I'd say either of :point_up:

I guess the main discussion point was split into a separate issue https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3354683 📌 Decide how Twig filters should process against an array of render arrays Active
Decide how Twig filters should process against an array of render arrays

lauriii
I’m wondering how do people workaround this in their projects? It looks like there are cases where render arrays are nested arrays even if there’s a single item

rlhawk
I’m interested in this, because I wrote a module that does something similar: https://www.drupal.org/project/twig_attributes → (edited)
Twig Attributes

lauriii
Oh cool! Would you like to review the MR?

rlhawk
Sure!

lauriii
Thanks! That would be epic!

rlhawk
I wrote the module four years ago out of frustration with how hard it is to add classes to links and image fields, but then sort of forgot about it until recently. I was just thinking it would be a useful addition to core, but didn’t know about the existing issues.

mherchel
That's awesome @rlhawk! Thanks for helping :slightly_smiling_face:

@mherchel: https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3301853#comment-15015747 ✨ Create twig filters: |add_class and |set_attribute Fixed
I fixed some trivial docs nits.
The git history in this MR branch is kinda fubar. Any chance you're up for an interactive rebase to clean things up and get it merge-able?
