Bricks​

Bricks — is a new way of building pages on top of Entity Reference, Display Modes, Layout API, tabledrag.js and Flat Tables. Everything is in Drupal core that makes Bricks ultra-lightweight and developer-friendly.

In terms of concept Bricks is a new generation of Paragraphs, an alternative to Panelizer and a good friend to ECK, Inline Entity Form and your favorite WYSIWYG. Shortly, it allows you to nest Entity Reference field items using Drupal drag & drop UI (exactly like for menu or taxonomy items).

Updates

• New: As of 8.x-1.6 Bricks supports Layout API!
• ↳ It’s recommended to migrate from Bricks Bootstrap to Bootstrap Kit (but not required).

2. Then follow the Paragraphs setup instructions.

Installation

Default setup (Bricks/ECK/IEF):

1. Install Bricks Default (shipped with Bricks) and its dependencies.
2. Done! Now you can create Bricky pages (content type) using simple pre-configured ECK bricks like Text, Image, Wrapper and special Layout brick (which can render other bricks via Layout API). Use an auto-created node as a live playground.

Theming with Bootstrap 3/4:

1. Additionally install Bootstrap Kit and its dependencies.
2. Done! Now you can use Columns, Accordion, Carousel and Tabs components via Layout brick. Install Bootstrap Kit Demo (shipped with Bootstrap Kit) to get a sample node.

Using with Paragraphs is also natively supported.

Requirements

All new Bricks for D8 has no requirements and works with ANY entity types!
