Taxonomy has long been a core part of Drupal, providing built-in entity-based classification. But does TaxonomyTerm still deserve its place in core for today’s projects? This session will critically examine the true strengths and limitations of the Taxonomy module—what makes it unique, what features are now easily replaced by custom entities or modules, and where it can add unwanted complexity. We’ll discuss use cases where Taxonomy makes sense, and where alternative approaches (like custom entities or DraggableViews) can provide more flexibility and maintainability. Join this session to gain practical insights and rethink your architectural choices for content classification in modern Drupal.
