Research direction

Search the developer documentation and the asset-admin and elemental modules for the JavaScript FormBuilder scaffolding implementation. Check how fields such as GridField and ListBoxField are handled, then document the supported fields and known limitations so developers can identify what works in the JS context.

Description

Currently we support scaffolding forms in JavaScript in modules like asset-admin and elemental. Currently for developers it's not clear at a glance which fields are actually supported. For instance we know that GridField is not supported and ListBoxField is partially supported.

We should add some docs to help developers understand the current support/limitations of the JS form scaffolding functionality.
