@@ -22,6 +22,9 @@ Each of these two main folders contain domain folders. Each domain folder is
named to the integration `domain` and must match the domain set in the
integration `manifest.json` file.

A third main folder `core_brands` is not updated by integration creators. This is only updated by core Home Assistant maintainers.

I was hoping you'd be more helpful as a reviewer.
What is the purpose of the folder core_brands? Its unexplained presence begs the question of its purpose.

Whilst it is possible to have both in Home Assistant, a warning is signalled on the Integration page for the custom integration: `Custom integration that replaces a core component` /

As I said, this one line would have clarified my confusion at this point.
I'm sure I'm not the only one learning Home Assistant reading these docs expecting clarity.
Why do you want them to be less informative than they could be?


It is possible for a custom integration and a core integration to collide on

CI will fail in many more cases, I'm not sure why we need to call that out. The goal of the CI is checking if requirements are met, we should describe it from that perspective.

Knowing how to meet the requirement would be helpful when the situation arises.
Again with the being less helpful than it could be.

I'm starting to see why the docs in general are in such poor shape.
