Extra Content Canvas Basecore
This project provides pre-built Canvas pages, reusable patterns, and components designed to help you quickly create polished Drupal websites. It's ideal for prototyping landing pages, testing content workflows, and demonstrating page-building capabilities without starting from scratch.
Extra Canvas Content is a demo Canvas recipe that adds ready-made Canvas pages, reusable patterns, component definitions, and media so you can make a Drupal site feel polished immediately. It is designed to help teams prototype landing pages, test Canvas workflows, and demo page-building features without starting from a blank slate.
This is the same Canvas starter we use in More than Themes premium products - now contributed to the community as a clean, reusable recipe.
