Module Description
Bricks — is a new way of building pages on top of Entity Reference, Display Modes, Layout API, tabledrag.js and Flat Tables. Everything is in Drupal core that makes Bricks ultra-lightweight and developer-friendly.
In terms of concept Bricks is a new generation of Paragraphs, an alternative to Panelizer and a good friend to ECK, Inline Entity Form and your favorite WYSIWYG. Shortly, it allows you to nest Entity Reference field items using Drupal drag & drop UI (exactly like for menu or taxonomy items).
Updates
* New: As of 8.x-1.6 Bricks supports Layout API!
* ↳ It’s recommended to migrate from Bricks Bootstrap to Bootstrap Kit (but not required).
* June 23, 2017: Session: Entity Reference as a Component-based Site Builder at Design 4 Drupal Boston 2017 by Anton Staroverov

Bricks+Paragraphs demo:
* Follow the instructions above, but using the different sandbox link.
* Then follow the Paragraphs setup instructions.
Installation Default setup (Bricks/ECK/IEF):
* Install Bricks Default (shipped with Bricks) and its dependencies.
* Done! Now you can create Bricky pages (content type) using simple pre-configured ECK bricks like Text, Image, Wrapper and special Layout brick (which can render other bricks via Layout API). Use an auto-created node as a live playground.
Theming with Bootstrap 3/4:
* Additionally install Bootstrap Kit and its dependencies.
* Done! Now you can use Columns, Accordion, Carousel and Tabs components via Layout brick. Install Bootstrap Kit Demo (shipped with Bootstrap Kit) to get a sample node.
Using with Paragraphs is also natively supported.
Requirements All new Bricks for D8 has no requirements and works with ANY entity types!
Submodules
* Bricks Core gives you a Bricks field/widget/formatter pack allowing you to compose flexible content of bricks (Layouts and Entities) via draggable tree UI.
* Bricks Inline 8.x-1.1+ allows you to create and edit bricks right in the draggable tree via Inline Entity Form.
* Bricks Revisions 8.x-1.3+ integrates Bricks with Entity Reference Revisions.
