Addons for base Drupal configurations

Descriptions of 4 common ways to setup DDEV

Add-on	Best for	Typical project layout
`UltraBob/ddev-drupal-code-quality`	Full Drupal website projects where your site repo already contains Drupal code and custom code.	Existing site/project repo; installs code-quality configs and IDE shims in-place.
`ddev/ddev-drupal-contrib`	Drupal contrib module/theme development where the contrib project is the center of the repo.	Contrib project repo with Drupal scaffolded around it (symlink workflow).
`justafish/ddev-drupal-core-dev` / `joachim-n/ddev-drupal-core-dev`	Drupal core development.	Drupal core checkout or core-dev project template.
https://addons.ddev.com/addons/amateescu/ddev-drupal-dev	Drupal core and contrib combined, see below	core git checkout as the project root.

DDEV Drupal Dev from Andrei Mateescu of Tag1

A DDEV add-on for working on Drupal core and contrib modules together, using a core git checkout as the project root.

Other add-ons target either core or contrib in isolation. This one is for when you need both: developing a contrib module against the latest core, fixing a core bug that affects contrib, or running contrib tests on a core patch.

Extra dependencies (contrib modules, Drush, dev tools) are managed through a composer.local.json overlay, keeping core's composer.json and composer.lock untouched.

"You can work on multiple modules this way; each gets its own git checkout that you can commit and push to independently."

Contrib Drupal Module Development

One way to set up local Development for a contrib module using e0ipso's AI suite. See Agentic Coding Harness for Drupal

opt out of T3 telemetry by adding the following to ~/.ddev/.env
- T3CODE_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=false
Install https://github.com/e0ipso/self-review
Then:

BDEV_CURRENT_SITE="config_suite"
cd ~/Sites
git clone git@git.drupal.org:project/$BDEV_CURRENT_SITE.git
cd $BDEV_CURRENT_SITE
cp ~/projects/.gitignore-ddev .gitignore
ddev config --project-type=drupal11 --docroot=web
orb
ddev add-on get ddev/ddev-drupal-contrib
ddev add-on get hanoii/ddev-drupal-contrib-extras
ddev start
ddev poser

ddev symlink-project
ddev config --update
ddev restart
ddev drush si -y
ddev drush en $BDEV_CURRENT_SITE -y
open $(ddev drush uli)
ddev exec "cd web/core && yarn install"

# Temporary workaround on Mac because e0ipso's plugin only works for Linux for importing local OpenCode config
mkdir -p $HOME/Sites/$BDEV_CURRENT_SITE/.ddev/homeadditions/.local/share
ln -s $HOME/.local/share/opencode $HOME/Sites/$BDEV_CURRENT_SITE/.ddev/homeadditions/.local/share/opencode

ddev add-on get e0ipso/ddev-playwright-cli
ddev add-on get e0ipso/ddev-assistant-opencode
ddev add-on get e0ipso/ddev-assistant-t3
ddev restart

# Allows running playwright-cli from inside the container
#   without having to use the --config option
# Symlinks .claude playwright skills to .agents folder for other harnesses. 
ddev ssh

rm .playwright/cli.config.json
ln -s "$(pwd)/.ddev/playwright-cli/cli.config.json" .playwright/cli.config.json
mkdir -p .agents/skills
ln -s "$(pwd)/.claude/skills/playwright-cli" .agents/skills/playwright-cli
exit
