Yay - We are very much looking forward to documentation for contributing and deploying AWX in its refactored state moving forward!

> We want to make it much easier to contribute to AWX and create [customizable AWX builds](https://forum.ansible.com/t/awx-ui-and-credential-types-transitioning-to-the-new-pluggable-architecture/8027#p-20376-customizable-awx-build-4) as we’ve been saying from the very beginning.

> we want to make it really simple and straightforward for developers to spin up environments and start working with the new plugin architecture

🥳

The two most important things for us:

- Consistent Deployments of AWX (like 24.6.1 used to be: incl. UI, User Authentification/Authorization, Credential Types, etc.)
- Being able to run, test, contribute features and bugfixes
