Adding a menu link with our custom Drupal 8 module

In this video, we are adding a link with the help of the .links.menu.yml file, in our custom Drupal 8 module.

We are going to be quickly creating a very simple controller with a route. Afterward, we are going to implement the .links.menu.yml in order to add a menu link to our page right after the module is installed.

The full code of the module you may find here

The idea is though not just to be another platform with some boring videos but all the videos to be inspired by real-world problems. That means something that you will most probably need if you work with Drupal. We want you to be successful and we want to teach you everything we know about Drupal!
So watch the videos, try to follow and reproduce, ask questions and you will see you will be able to conquer this wonderful sea that Drupal 8 is.
