Upgrading to Drupal 10: A real case
summary
OpenEuropa migrates a two‑year Drupal 7→9→10 project across 200+ sites by scanning code with the Upgrade Status module, targeting 174 modules and breaking the work into small composer-driven steps, PRs and staged deploys; most contrib modules already meet requirements, a few need patches or waiting, and one caused a Solar configuration mismatch that required shipping Solr config. Uses composer, text reports, vanilla JS, CKEditor4 kept for now; process succeeds with staged testing.
