Paragraphs is a contributed module that lets editors build structured content from reusable components. Instead of one big body field, content is assembled from paragraph items like text blocks, image galleries, call outs, and video embeds.
Create paragraph types similar to content types, each with its own fields. Attach a Paragraphs reference field to a content type, and editors can add, reorder, and mix paragraph items while editing.
This gives editors a powerful way to build rich pages without needing developer help for every layout change. It is a popular alternative to Layout Builder for sites where the page structure is driven by content rather than layout decisions. Paragraphs has a mature ecosystem, including visual editing enhancements like Paragraphs Collection. For content heavy sites that need flexibility beyond simple fields, Paragraphs is often a better fit than Layout Builder.
