Description

Some form views examples are missing the <group>...</group> tags inside <notebook><page>...</page></notebook> nodes.

This leads to an improper rendering of the fields inside the view and is misleading for newer developers figuring out form views.

Research direction

Open content/developer/tutorials/getting_started/07_basicviews.rst and content/developer/tutorials/backend.rst at the referenced examples. Compare the notebook page nodes with the expected grouped form-view structure, then update the examples so each affected page includes the missing group tags. Done means both cited occurrences render correctly and no longer mislead developers.
