Full Fat Things named as top UK Drupal contributors for second year running

1 Nov 2021

For the second year running we made the global top 10 for Drupal contributing companies – the only British owned business to do so.
Last year we were 9th and now we're 7th in the world and we are so delighted.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again – open source is brilliant. Developers can come together to solve issues and create new software. Because we actively contribute to the community we can build innovative software more efficiently, while meeting our customers' bespoke needs.

Full Fat Things now #7 in the world as Drupal contributors

Dries Buytaert, founder of Drupal, published the most recent Drupal contributions report on October 20, 2021. With the development of Drupal 9 over the past year since its release in June 2020, our team has been hard at work in contributing to Drupal core, modules, distributions and themes. Our contributions to Drupal’s development means we are influencing the direction of Drupal every day. We can learn from our peers in the community, and we have unparalleled knowledge of its ecosystem.

Of course in the global top 10, we’re in great company. But it makes us even prouder of our position in the Drupal community to be recognised as the only British owned and wholly UK based company in the top 10.

Our Developer Dave Long #3 in the world

Full Fat Things was not only ranked as #7 in the world for Drupal contributions by impact, but Senior Developer, Dave Long (a.k.a. longwave), was also recognised as #3 in the world (up from #8 in 2020), for his individual Drupal contributions by impact. Wow, congratulations Dave!

The work of our team, much like Dave’s, has been critical to Drupal 9 development and its continued success. And we’re so proud.
