In Drupal, paragraphs are reusable pieces of content that can be added to pages or other content types. They allow you to create flexible and modular content for your website, making it easier to create and manage complex layouts and designs.
Paragraphs are created as standalone content items in Drupal, and can be added to pages or other content types using the Content field type. This field type allows you to add one or more paragraphs to a content item, and provides a user interface for selecting and configuring the paragraphs that you want to include.
There are many different types of paragraphs that you can use in Drupal, including text, images, video, and more. Think of these as sections of a newspaper article or essay. Each paragraph has the flexibility to have a different layout to keep the visitor engaged with the content.
