Blocks and Regions
In this Drupal 8 Theming tutorial we are going to be looking at setting up Drupal regions and adding blocks of content to them.
Drupal 8 and all the other “Drupals” have something called regions, they are locations on your page where you can put pieces of content or functionality. You do that among other things by adding blocks to them.
Blocks are “containers” that contain some content or functionality in them. You can easily move them around the regions by just dragging them in Drupal administration. Pretty great stuff.
