Paragraphs is the new way of content creation!
It allows you — Site Builders — to make things cleaner so that you can give more editing power to your end users.
Instead of putting all their content in one WYSIWYG body field including images and videos, end-users can now choose on-the-fly between pre-defined Paragraph Types independent from one another. Paragraph Types can be anything you want from a simple text block or image to a complex and configurable slideshow.
Paragraphs module comes with a new "paragraphs" field type that works like Entity References. Simply add a new paragraphs field on any Content Type you want and choose which Paragraph Types should be available to end-users. They can then add as many Paragraph items as you allowed them to and reorder them at will.
Paragraphs module does not come with any default Paragraph Types but you have complete control over what fields they should be composed of and what they should look like through the standard Backdrop Manage Fields and Manage Display screens.
You can also add custom option fields and do conditional coding in your CSS, JS and preprocess functions so that end-users can have more control over the look and feel of each item. This is way much cleaner and stable than adding inline CSS or classes inside the body field's source.
So... what's it gonna be? Accordions, Tabs, Slideshows, Masonry galleries, Parallax backgrounds...? Think big!
