Best Practices for Managing 6,000+ Documents in a Drupal Site

Hi Drupal Community,

I'm currently working on a Drupal site where I need to upload and manage nearly 6,000 documents (mainly .pdf, .docx, and .ppt files).
Until now, I have only managed smaller numbers of documents, so handling this scale is new to me.

AI DeepChat Chatbot shows "no valid stream events..." error message

Hello,

AI DeepChat Chatbot shows a "no valid stream events were sent" error message when run on Drupal 11.1.6 with Groq as a default model provider and Llama-4-scout-17B-i6e-Instruct as default LLM model for discussion. Groq was installed from the Drupal 1.0.5 AI module (admin/config/ai/settings) list of model providers on Ubuntu 24.04 with LiteSpeed as web server. PHP version is 8.3.19. Here is an example of discussion with the error message (in bold):

Changing the theme appearance using CSS

Drupal 11. Theme: Martex

I loaded a theme and in the settings regions are identified with the option to add CSS class names to change the look of the region. I read the theme documentation and it states that I should put additional CSS into a file called local.css in the theme/css folder. There was an existing file, so I added a class to turn the background black and put the theme name into the box provided in the theme appearance page. I cleared the cache.

Nothing happened.

I would appreciate a pointer to how this process should work and what should I be doing?

Using Drupal as the basis for a mobile app

Has anyone developed a mobile app for their Drupal website? I’m not talking about displaying the Drupal site in a frame, or anything like that. I’m thinking about creating a proper native iOS / Android app, and using the Drupal website's database, to give users the same experience as they get when they interact with the website. 

Can Webform be filled from an external API? (D10 / D11)

Hello,

I've got 3 Text fields on my form (1 & 2 on one page / card, 3 on the 2nd page).
If 1 & 2 get filled (click next to the 2nd card / page), is it possible to send the data to an API and write the API response into the Text field 3?

Is there any module / low code tool available that can do that? (ECA or a webform related module)?
Or only via custom code? If only via custom code, what would be the most reasonable and easiest approach?
