In the previous chapter, we installed Drupal 8 on our system. Now we are going to create our custom recipe content type. Before that, we will discuss five new fields added in Drupal 8:
Date: The Date field is the Date module in Drupal 7. We can choose to record the Date and time or Date only as options.
Email: The Date module is simple but the Email field is even simpler. There are no settings at all for the Email field.
Link: The Link field allows both internal and external links, along with a link text option.
Telephone: The Telephone field is disabled by default in Drupal 8, so we need to enable the module to use it. It has no settings. It really is just a text field that adds
<a href="tel:
to turn the text into a telephone link.Reference: The Reference module is the most powerful field. We can link to anything that's an entity, which means we can link to comments, content, blocks, files, terms, and users.
