Day 1 : Mentor meet #1

Today was all about gaining a deeper understanding of the JA Advanced Migration Tool through our first mentor meeting. Here’s what we covered, what I learned, and where we're heading next.
🔑 Key Points
We're targeting WordPress as the first platform for migration using its JSON export.
Emphasis on supporting Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) in the export — further research needed.
Architecture will include:
A core component to handle data imports via a standard content model.
Plugins for specific platforms to adapt unique data formats.
Move toward JSON over XML/CSV, ideally using schema.org structure for content .
