JohnFF made me curious about Drupal 8, but I use Aegir, so I worked a bit on adding D8 support to the hosting_civicrm component.

I was curious why CiviCRM-Drupal8 requires to be installed in the libraries directory? I patched core to remove that requirement (drupal/civicrm.install), and had no issues installing CiviCRM in the modules directory.

If anyone is curious for the Aegir support:
https://www.drupal.org/node/2682147 (in short: it works, but I had to apply a patch)

Make file for the very lazy:

I think that's just where they live now mate.

re: libraries: it seems close enough to the D7 model ?

Except that /sites/all/modules is now just /modules
