As many of you know, support and development of the Foundry framework has sadly come to an end, leaving its users searching for a new path forward.
At Stacks Summit 2025, Adam Jackson shared his incredible story about transitioning from Foundry to Foundation 6. This talk that resonated deeply with many in our community.
Adam isn’t a professional web designer; he’s a photographer who built his business site with Foundry. When Foundry shut down, he faced the challenge of migrating everything. He found that Foundation 6 wasn’t just a replacement, but an upgrade.
In this 50-minute session, Adam walks through:
- His real-world process of migrating from Foundry to Foundation
- The “aha!” moment when swatches and classes finally clicked
- Common Foundry components and how they translate to Foundation
- Lessons learned, pitfalls avoided, and how ChatGPT (yes, me
) even helped - His tips for Foundry users making the same journey
This talk is now free and public — my way of helping Foundry users find stability, confidence, and creativity again.
Let’s support one another through this transition. The community’s stronger together. 
Thank you @jacksona!
