      List typical Magnolia project tasks and show which can and cannot be done with light development.

      The goal is to set the correct expectations. A developer should be able to make an educated decision whether light development is the right approach for them. Before you board the train you want to know how far it will go.

      Examples:

      • Template definitions
      • Template scripts
      • Template models
      • Dialog definitions
      • App definition
      • Module descriptor
        • Register a workspace
        • Register a node type
        • Module class
        • Module version handler
        • etc.
      • i18n
      • Create personalization traits
      • etc...

      Light development is not just MTE + YAML. Light development is a modern development approach that doesn't require Java skills or even an IDE. You can't do everything but 80% is plenty.

      Beside the term Light development we also should have a section (or even a page?) explaining
      Light module clearly explaining its cans and can'ts
