The Umbraco package Contentment is migrating to the new backoffice, Bellissima. After Umbraco v14's preview release, Lee faced dilemmas: adapt existing code or start fresh? Compiler errors were fixed for v14, paving the way for potential RCL approach and versioning changes, contemplating v5 and v6 for Umbraco v15 (Bellissima). The .NET multi-targeting method is still under consideration.
