Site Building With ECK and Bricks

With Drupal 8 there are a number of approaches to component based page layouts - Entity References, Paragraphs, and Panels to name three. In this talk we'll take a detailed walk-through of using the Bricks module to build pages composed of re-usable, nested components. We'll cover the basics of setting up a Bricks based site but also look at some best practices, using Bricks for highly custom page designs, and using Bricks along with a framework like Bootstrap or Zurb Foundation to provide more generic but very flexible solution.

While this talk isn't a comparison between different approaches we will see how the Bricks approach differs from other approaches like Paragraphs and Panels.
