Talking Twig
summary
Proposes replacing many near-identical field templates with one base field.html.twig that uses null coalescing ternary and extends + blocks to choose wrapper elements and classes, so a child template can set element=h2 and classes="call-out headline" in three lines instead of duplicating HTML; demonstrates reuse for blocks/forms, notes Twig searches templates recursively, is 100% backward-compatible, and recommends the twig_tweak module to simplify raw field output.
