Now that 4.3 ships with ZopeSkel out of the box (thanks @smcmahon for very hard work) we need to update all tutorials to reflect this reality and get rid of the fragile old boilerplate.
Check which zopeskel version 4.3 comes with
Standardize content creation to this zopeskel version
Standardize theme creation to this zopeskel version (which is actually Diazo compatible theme package, is such needed anymore?)
Update instructions how to export Dexterity content types to this version
Update all tutorials or add Dragons warnings if they cannot be updated and are no longer compatible
@zupo what are the implications of todoapp tutorial? Last time I checked it used a custom buildout, but I would prefer to see a solution where we start from the scratch with vanilla Plone installation.
🍻 for everyone.

I would argue yes. In my experience it is more convenient to edit and maintain a diazo
theme on the filesystem although I prefer to deploy them as uploadable zip files.
ZopeSkel's actually been shipping with the installers for some time, in the develop.cfg. What's new with 4.3 is that we're including zopeskel.dexterity and zopeskel.diazo.
The diazotheme skeleton covers a more sophisticated need than what you can handle via zip file:
It includes z3c.jbot and has its own browserlayer;
It includes the profile machinery to add resources to portal_css and portal_javascripts.
I think an ideal theming tutorial would start TTP, then say "need more?" Create a package with zopeskel.diazo, drop the exported work so far into it, and develop on! The Dexterity tutorial could do pretty much the same.
[BTW, I know that Templer's not far from useful. But it wasn't ready for 4.3, and that's that.]

@svx could you help with this task?
