Drupal Blocks and Block Types

Acerca de

This skill provides expert guidance for architecting Drupal block systems that are portable, maintainable, and decoupled from layout concerns. It helps developers move beyond one-off content blocks by implementing structured field plans, region-agnostic naming conventions, and disciplined view mode reuse. By following these best practices, you can ensure your blocks are easily managed in code rather than relying on environment-specific database entries, leading to more robust and scalable Drupal sites.
