Video: upgrading to SilverStripe 4

Our first meetup of the year in Wellington set the record for the biggest number of attendees ever. 54 enthusiastic SilverStripers gathered in our headquarters to hear about the latest developments in SilverStripe 4.

Today, we’ve released one of the talks from the event on the topic of "Upgrading to SilverStripe 4". The presentation was delivered by SilverStripe developer, Robbie Averill. He covered the major changes in the upgrading process, smaller "gotchas", new code conventions and best practices, and how to use the SilverStripe upgrader tool. The talk will no doubt give you some ideas, tips and tricks, in your process of upgrading modules and/or projects to SilverStripe 4.

You can also view the presentation on SlideShare.
