Problem/Motivation

Currently, we do not have Gin documentation migrated to https://www.drupal.org/docs/core-modules-and-themes/core-themes .

In the description in default_admin.info.yml there are two links to the old Gin documentation, which are not correct with regards to the Default admin theme. For example there is a link to https://www.drupal.org/docs/contributed-themes/gin-admin-theme/custom-th... , which mentions a possibility to Extend via gin-custom.css, but that is not true for Default admin (the filename is different, etc).

So I think we need to:

1. Copy (and update) relevant documentation from https://www.drupal.org/docs/contributed-themes/gin-admin-theme to https://www.drupal.org/docs/core-modules-and-themes/core-themes
2. Change two links in the default_admin.info.yml to point to the correct documentation pages

Creating this as a bug, as linking to the incorrect documentation is a bug.

Steps to reproduce

Open default_admin.info.yml and see two links to old (outdated) Gin documentation, which does not apply fully to the Default admin theme.

Proposed resolution

Copy the relevant docs, update images.
default_admin.info.yml was updated in #3582169: Cleanup cspell ignores in Admin

Any followups can be done in #3618215: Documentation for Admin theme

Remaining tasks

  1. ✅ Create 'Default Admin' in Core themes, https://www.drupal.org/docs/core-modules-and-themes/core-themes
  2. ✅ Copy the page about the theme settings.
  3. ✅ Update images, after info.yml is updated

I've updated the doc page with new images and removed more references to Gin etc.

I think this brings the docs up to date and cane be closed. The doc is in the Core theme guide and really should be in the Experimental themes guide but let's not move it back. Admin may still become stable.

The docs from https://www.drupal.org/docs/core-modules-and-themes/core-themes/default-... look good to me, I think we can call this fixed.
