Just a thought about content for the future (outside the scope of this PR):
We should probably have a section similar to this for all Exposed naming conventions during table definition, but at minimum definitely for column names.
For example, quite a few sample code blocks use a column registered as varchar("name", 50), so when we show related SQL (using H2) it translates to "name" VARCHAR(50). Users may not get the implication that Exposed auto-quotes (& retains case-sensitivity of) all keywords used as names. This would probably be a prudent addition somewhere later.

Good idea, I created a new issue for this at EXPOSED-571 so we don't forget.

Outside this PR, if you think it's worth doing, we could rewrite this using our own sample code and avoid having to link externally. Would probably be a good opportunity to include content on table/entity inheritance and interceptors, etc.

Yep, we should definitely do something about this. I created a new issue at EXPOSED-572. If you could help with writing the sample, it would be great 🙏

Description
Split the 'Deep dive into DAO' topic into the following new subtopics:
Because of the newly introduced 'Table types' subtopic for DAO, I made some changes to the topics covering table definition as well (as described in EXPOSED-535). These changes aim to improve clarity and interlinking of the relevant topics.
Note: The content in 'Field transformation' seems to be outdated, but I will cover this in a separate PR.
