Uh oh!

I was looking into the installation documentation: https://dkan.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/index.html to check for the current recommended way to install DKAN that new users of DKAN will probably follow. I did this to provide help for some of the custom DKAN addon modules I published on how to add them to a standard DKAN installation. I noticed a few problems about the installation documentation:
composer create-project getdkan/recommended-project my-projectyou will land on Drupal 10.3 which is end of life and in addition I had some troubles due to 10.3 and Olivero (that were not related to DKAN though). So maybe https://github.com/GetDKAN/recommended-project will need an update, at least the default should not point to Drupal 10.3 anymore? There is already a branch for Drupal 10.4, but probably 10.5 would be a better fit?composer require 'getdkan/dkan'like give in documentation. You will need to add asset-packagist like described here: https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/using-composer/manage-dependencies#third-party-libraries, otherwise you will receive some really weird composer error messages, that may lead in wrong directions if you are not familiar with composer error messages. Therefore it would maybe be helpful to point users in install documentation to adding asset-packagist.All reactions
