# Drupal 9.x Project Development Checklist

A checklist of common tools, settings, modules etc to check for a Drupal 9.x web project



> Want to use a **Docker** image for development? Head to https://github.com/theodorosploumis/gitpod-drupal-workspace!



**How to use this?**

I usually copy this checklist to a Github issue so I won't forget anything.
