ECK, Paragraphs, Blocks, and Custom Entities

ECK

  • best suited for custom relational entities
  • each ECK entity stands on its own
  • does not support translation (yet)
  • Use Inline Entity Form and Inline Entity Form Preview for best authoring experience.

Paragraphs

  • best suited for enhancing content entry on individual entities
  • treated as an extension of existing entities
  • does support translation
  • does not support content reuse

Blocks

  • Good fit for creating a handful of reusable entities

Custom entities

  • alternative to ECK
  • can support translation and revisions
  • can be scaffolded by drupal console
