Description

Describe the bug
Documentation is not accurate on :
https://alfresco-content-app.netlify.app/#/tutorials/how-to-create-your-first-extension

used the prerequisites :
ACA version 5.3.0,
ACS 23.4,
NodeJs version 18.20.3

what i found :

Folder not found in the assertion :

In addition, edit the src/assets/app.extensions.json file on the $references array. Below how it should look like.

"$references": ["my-extension.json"],

instead, i found it on : projects/aca-content/assets
is that the good file?

Also in the assertion below :

Let's instruct the configuration file for the extension to be visible from the ACA app through a public URL. To complete the task, edit the angular.json file as described below.

// Add to 'src/app.config.json' array.
...
{
  "glob": "my-extension.json",
  "input": "projects/my-extension/assets",
  "output": "./assets/plugins"
},
...

I could not find the angular.json file ==> i foundit in the project.json file in the root folder

and the comment : // Add to 'src/app.config.json' array. is not clear on the docs, did you mean :

update the project.json file and add the object : 
{
  "glob": "my-extension.json",
  "input": "projects/my-extension/assets",
  "output": "./assets/plugins"
},

under : 
{
 "glob": "app.config.json",
 "input": "app/src",
  "output": "/"
 },

Also : "npm install my-extension" gets the my-extension for npm registry which is causing dependency issue as the alfresco-content-services package there is outdated.
