The current backups section in the documentation lists steps that start with "Create a script".
This might be challenging as well as time consuming for users who are new or unfamiliar with appwrite or Server Side APIs.
Suggestions:
Link to Tutorials/Scripts
It would be helpful to have tutorials or scripts linked directly in the backups section.
These could be created by community members (validated by maintainers) or the maintainers themselves. Having a dedicated tutorial linked on the same page will provide clear guidance.
Pre-Migration Prompt
Before initiating a migration, it would be helpful to display a prompt or message reminding the user about the backups.
An example message could be:
You are migrating from 1.3.8 to 1.4.0 which is a major release. Please ensure you've backed up your Appwrite instance.\
If you haven't, please follow this guide: https://appwrite.io/docs/production#backups
Backup Confirmation
Before proceeding with the migration, consider adding a prompt to confirm if the user has backed up their Appwrite instance. This acts as a safety measure, example:
Have you backed up your Appwrite instance? [Y/n]:
These enhancements will ensure safer migrations, reducing the potential for configuration errors or data loss on appwrite's major releases.
