Create Custom ACA Extensions with AI: Comprehensive Guide

Create Custom ACA Extensions with AI: Comprehensive Guide

This AI agent skill provides a structured approach to scaffolding a full ACA/ADW UI extension, including the configuration of essential components such as pages, sidebars, context menus, and toolbars. This guide meticulously outlines the process of generating a plugin.json descriptor, implementing the provideExtension() providers function, and setting up NgRx actions and effects along with Angular standalone components for the designated extension points. Additionally, it includes creating an HTTP service and applying integration patch instructions for extensions.module.ts, project.json, and app.config.json.
