Plone 6: [dev] Backend / Classic UI

[MrTango]

Overview Plone 6 backend / classic-ui developer docs

structure

Keep it as flat as possible, very long stories should be handled in trainings. Short examples (tutorial style) should stay in the docs close to the context. Backend is relevant for Headless and Classic UI, if in doubt keep it in backend for the moment.

@MrTango regarding the four task checkboxes, I am not clear about what you mean. Perhaps these should be separate issues?

Also an update: I have completed the structure for backend, and I have started on classic-ui in my draft PR #1141

[stevepiercy]

I addressed the structure in PR #1141.

I created new issues for the tasks where they can be tracked.

Closing.
