• Review Chad's questions

  • Rancher Desktop appears to be holding on to port 443 after I installed it. Although I changed the port to something else, do you have any suggestions to update the setup to use ports 443 and 80 instead?
  • How are tools like phpcs and PHPStan used by the Drupal community for contrib? Are they a part of drupal.org's testing automation?
  • Starting a new D10 website from scratch in DDEV is one thing … How would I typically work with an existing D10 website? Do I start with the community config, then overwrite the code, database, and files? Is there a better approach?
