Should we use Paragraphs or Layout Builder in Drupal? This guide breaks down the strengths of each approach and helps you choose the right module for flexible, editor-friendly page building.

I still think that #LayoutBuilder seems intrinsically antithetical to creating #Accessible #Drupal sites, prioritizing visual layout over semantic structure.
I guess some folks might be taking the time to customize the editing experience to help ensure proper heading structure and such, but overall it feels like slipping back to using HTML tables to position content instead of CSS classes based on the type of content.
Excited to welcome Panagiotis Moutsopoulos to #DrupalDevDays 🥳
Join Panagiotis at #DDD24 to explore #Drupal's philosophy of using a single module for most cases, presenting problems and their solutions with various core or contrib modules and technologies, including #Panels, #Context, #DisplaySuite, #LayoutBuilder, #REST, and #JSONAPI.

Evolving Drupal’s Layout Builder to an Experience Builder. https://buff.ly/3QfI44w
Looks like Dries decided to save Paragraphs from Gutenberg.
Drupal has the details: https://buff.ly/3xTqf52
This better explains the decision and doesn’t rule out integrating Gutenberg.
Still, I am sure this will take years to come to fruition.

@mikemccaffrey We routinely create custom layouts and use them within #LayoutBuilder. We also make heavy use of https://www.drupal.org/project/layout_builder_component_attributes and https://www.drupal.org/project/layout_custom_section_classes to add semantic classes to sections and blocks, for theming.
You make a great point, though -- our solution takes a lot of customization, it's not a simple thing for our clients to use. And sometimes we have to add a block just for a header.
I think #LayoutBuilder is a big step back for #Accessibility in #Drupal.
Look at the umami demo: Visually, you can see that these four blocks fit together in a section that contains metadata about the recipe, but there is no way to indicate they are a semantic section and provide an h2 title using the interface.
Explore How Symfony Station was built: an adventurous exploration of layout solutions. It’s an adventure story (aka case study) of how Symfony Station was built and the research behind each decision. It also functions as our about page. 🙂
