The main impetus for trying this was an emerging need to migrate a type of content bundle known as the Paragraph. This does not migrate naturally using the Drupal UI, so a custom approach is necessary.

If you are a web developer who wants to learn more about Drupal migrations and has not yet set up a custom migration workflow, this is a good primer.
