Metatag Previously discussed in episodes: 70 as MOTW (8y ago!) and mentioned in 31, 46, 137. And 185
Brief description: Allows your Drupal site to provide meta tags on content to implement SEO best practices and maximize online findability
Brief history - How old: created in 2009
- Versions available: Supported versions for Drupal 7, 9, and 10
- Current version released Sep 29, 2022
Usage stats: 381,821
Maintainer(s): Dave Reid and DamienMcKenna
- renowned Drupal contributors
Module features and usage
Allows content editors to populate common (and uncommon) meta tags either manually for each piece of content, or to have them filled out programmatically using tokens
A wide variety of submodules to address different use cases where meta tags are helpful: social sharing, verifying site ownership (e.g. for Google Search Console), and more
For any site that considers SEO a priority (which is probably most public-facing sites), setting Metatag should really be one of the first things
Discussion: Given how widely used this module is, does anyone have specific experience with Metatag to talk about?

Editoria11y (“editorial accessibility”) is a user-friendly checker that addresses three critical needs for content authors - It runs automatically. Modern spellcheck works so well because it is always running; put spellcheck behind a button and few users remember to run it!
- It runs in context. Views, Layout Builder, Media and all the other modules Drupal uses to assemble a complex page means checkers that run on individual fields cannot “see” errors that appear on render.
- It focuses exclusively on content issues: things page editors can easily understand and easily fix. Editoria11y is meant to supplement, not replace, testing with comprehensive tools and real assistive devices.

At some point I was tired of creating custom pages using menu and form API, writing tons of code just to have a page with an ugly form where a client can enter some settings, and as soon as a client wants to add some interactions to the page (drag&drop, ajax etc) things starts to get hairy. The same story was with the creation of dedicated CT just to theme a single page (like homepage) and explaining why you can only have 1 node of this type, or force it programmatically.
