eZ Platform with Legacy

What is eZ Platform with Legacy?

Are you one of those developers that still don't want to get ride of Legacy admin interface? Since this commit eZ Platform is not shipped with legacy-bridge anymore. So, if you still want to add legacy admin interface and use all those old eZ Publish extensions, you need to adapt your installation following the instructions given in the legacy brige INSTALL.md file, _(*1)

eZ Platform with Legacy will just do this for you, allowing the installation of eZ Platform and old legacy code without the need to manually modify anything., _(*2)

eZ Publish Community vs. this repo
