Drupal media entities are fieldable entities, which means that you can add any custom fields you want to your Media types. These fields can be used for collecting additional metadata about a resource, categorizing and organizing resources so they're easier to find in a large media library, or for displaying information like a photo credit or transcript for a video. The possibilities are endless once you know how to add, and optionally display, fields in Drupal.

Some example use cases for adding fields to Media types:

• Collect, and display, a credit to go along with a photo. This could also be a date, a location, or any other metadata.
• Store resource width and height dimensions as custom fields so they can be referenced by display logic in the theme layer.
• Use Taxonomy reference fields to add tags or categories to help keep a large library organized.

In this tutorial we'll:

• Learn how to add fields to a Media type
• Verify our new custom field is working

By the end of this tutorial you'll know how to add custom fields to any Media type.

Overview of development sites with an example deployment workflow for site building.

Knowing how to clear Drupal's cache is an important skill for any developer. You'll likely find yourself doing it frequently in order to get Drupal to register the changes you make to your code, or other updates you make via the UI. It is also a good first step to trouble shooting problems with your Drupal site: Clear the cache before you do any other debugging to ensure it's not just a bad cache entry.

Back-end developers, and Drupal site builders, often find themselves having to perform the same UI steps over and over again, like exporting configuration, importing configuration changes, running cron, processing a large queue of jobs, indexing items for Search API, and more. Performing these tasks with Drush saves time and reduces the number of clicks required.

Drush core contains commands to execute all the most common tasks. Many contributed modules provide their own Drush commands to make interaction with the module's features, easier, faster, and scriptable.

In this tutorial we'll:

• Learn about the Drush core commands for common tasks like interacting with queues, performing database backups, and importing/exporting configuration
• Demonstrate how to find the Drush commands provided by contributed modules in your project

By the end of this tutorial you'll learn some popular commands for common tasks that'll speed up your daily work.
