Entity Browser is a configurable tool that allows users to select one or multiple Drupal entities for various purposes, such as referencing them in fields or embedding them in content. It offers a flexible interface with different display options and integrates with other modules for enhanced functionality.

Possible use cases:

  • Powerful entity reference widget
  • Embedding entities into wysiwyg.
