Add custom field in the Frontend in Shopware 6

Adding custom fields in the storefront is quite simple. You basically use Twig this way:

{{ "customFields.custom_description_Name"|trans|sw_sanitize }}: {{ page.product.translated.customFields.custom_description_Name }}

You can use the custom field on product detail page like that:

<plugin root>/src/Resources/views/storefront/page/product-detail/description.html.twig
{% sw_extends '@Storefront/storefront/page/product-detail/description.html.twig' %}

{% block page_product_detail_description_content_text %}
    {{ parent() }}
    {# Insert your custom field here, as seen below: #}
    {{ "customFields.custom_description_Name"|trans|sw_sanitize }}: {{ page.product.translated.customFields.custom_description_Name }}
{% endblock %}
