I think this line is obsolete if we have an example of AppKernel.php right below?

I would add an intro like this:
Almost all extensions for Contao 3 are also compatible with Contao 4. If a Contao 3 extension is not available on Composer, you can install it manually and try if it works with Contao 4. Be aware that you must also take care of installing all dependencies as listed in the Extension Repository.

Looks RTM to me 👍 |
|
I'll add the translation in this PR. 😃 |

@aschempp Initially, the link targeted the chapter "Installing Contao" but then we transferred this paragraph into the cookbook. Are you agree to add a cookbook chapter as a reference? Manual -> Cookbook

In general I'm fine with that, but in this case maybe we can just link to the Wikipedia article like the cookbook does? The sentence looks like an explanation what symbolic link is, and not about what Contao does with it (was described in the cookbook).

I added the Wikipedia links 👍

It's RTM for me too if you agree with contao/docs@7d55931#r83456222 |

@aschempp: It is complete (RTM) |

Would someone be available for the german translation? @fritzmg maybe? 😊 |

Sure, I'll have a look at it :) |

Hm, this is only for Contao 4, right? Then the mention of the ER should be removed completely, I think?

We can write:

| Contao 4 is built on top of the Symfony framework and takes advantage of its | ||

I would rephrase this whole paragraph to:
Extensions are an essential part of Contao, because they allow you to add extra functionality. Contao 4 is based on the Symfony framework and takes advantage of its functionalities and its terminiology. In Contao 4 you can use classic extensions from previous Contao versions as well as so called Bundles.

@fritzmg when could you take a look at this? 😊 |
|
Yes, sorry, I already started working on it but couldn't finish it yet. It's a little more effort than the other changes. |
