183d034716 User guide structure update (#16705)
Reorganizing by Feature sections

Capabilities folders to give an overview of each feature

How-Tos folders to give guidance for advanced customizations

Reorganized the Developers section as well, moving the API sub section
there

added some new visuals and videos to illustrate the How-Tos articles

checked the typos, the links and added a section at the end of the
doc.json file to redirect existing links to the new ones (SEO purpose +
continuity of the user experience)

What I have not updated is the "l" folder that, per my understanding,
contains the translation of the User Guide - that I only edited in
English

## Tech Stack
The project has a clean and simple stack, with minimal boilerplate code.
**App**
- [React](https://react.dev/)
- [Apollo](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/)
- [GraphQL Codegen](https://the-guild.dev/graphql/codegen)
- [Recoil](https://recoiljs.org/docs/introduction/core-concepts)
- [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)
**Testing**
- [Jest](https://jestjs.io/)
- [Storybook](https://storybook.js.org/)
**Tooling**
- [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/)
- [Craco](https://craco.js.org/docs/)
- [ESLint](https://eslint.org/)
## Architecture
### Routing
[React Router](https://reactrouter.com/) handles the routing.
To avoid unnecessary [re-renders](/developers/contribute/capabilities/frontend-development/best-practices-front#managing-re-renders) all the routing logic is in a `useEffect` in `PageChangeEffect`.
### State Management
[Recoil](https://recoiljs.org/docs/introduction/core-concepts) handles state management.
See [best practices](/developers/contribute/capabilities/frontend-development/best-practices-front#state-management) for more information on state management.
## Testing
[Jest](https://jestjs.io/) serves as the tool for unit testing while [Storybook](https://storybook.js.org/) is for component testing.
Jest is mainly for testing utility functions, and not components themselves.
Storybook is for testing the behavior of isolated components, as well as displaying the design system.
