User Story
As a developer, I want to be able to add a button using a function provided by dotCMS that allows the content author to create an specific content without having to search for the correct Content Type.
Acceptance Criteria
- This function should be available to use in Headless and Traditional Rendering
- This function should have a macro version for non developer persona to use in their VTLs
- This function should be included in our headless examples and starter to serve as a guide on how to use it

Research direction
No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reading the UVE communication and macro documentation, then trace how Headless and Traditional Rendering expose authoring actions; done means the function works in both modes, has a VTL macro, and is demonstrated in the headless examples and starter.
