Adding fields to all the things

Session Category Beginner Track Audience Beginner

Mystified about the role that fields play in modern Drupal? Still working on wrapping your head around terms like "entities", "bundles", and "fields"?

This beginner-level session will focus on one of the core building blocks of Drupal - its ability to add fields to (almost) anything. You'll get a birds-eye view of the role that fields play in the content architecture of a Drupal site, and leave with a better understanding of how both core and contrib modules can leverage this important building block of Drupal.
