+## Importing external docs and converting to MyST
+
+This section describes how to import external projects and convert their docs to MyST.
+We did this for `plone.app.dexterity` and several other projects.
+
+1.  Create a new branch using the name of the project.
+1.  Install [rst-to-myst](https://pypi.org/project/rst-to-myst/).
+
+    ```shell
+    bin/pip install "rst-to-myst[sphinx]"
+    ```
+
+1.  Clone the project repository to the root of `plone/documentation`.
+1.  Delete any non-documentation files from the clone.
+1.  Move the documentation files and subfolders to the root of the clone, retaining the documentation structure.
+1.  Convert the reStructuredText documentation files to MyST.
+    The example commands below assume that there are files at the root of the clone and in one sub-level of nested directories.
+    For deeper nesting, insert globbing syntax for each sub-level as `**/`
+
+    ```shell
+    bin/rst2myst convert -R project/*.rst
+    bin/rst2myst convert -R project/**/*.rst
+    ```
+
+1.  Add HTML meta data to the converted files.
+
+    ```shell
+    cd project
+    ../bin/python ../docs/addMetaData.py
+    ```
+
+1.  Optionally clean up any MyST syntax.
+1.  Commit and push your branch to GitHub and create a pull request.

+# Behaviors
+
+This chapter describes how to find and add behaviors.
+
+Dexterity introduces the concept of *behaviors*, which are reusable bundles of functionality or form fields which can be turned on or off on a per-type basis.
+
+Each behavior has a unique interface.
+When a behavior is enabled on a type, you will be able to adapt that type to the behavior's interface.
+If the behavior is disabled, the adaptation will fail.
+The behavior interface can also be marked as an `IFormFieldsProvider`, in which case it will add fields to the standard add and edit forms.
+Finally, a behavior may imply a sub-type: a marker interface which will be dynamically provided by instances of the type for which the behavior is enabled.
+
+We will not cover writing new behaviors here, but we will show how to enable behaviors on a type.
+Writing behaviors is covered in {doc}`/backend/behaviors`.
+
+In fact, we've already seen one standard behavior applied to our example types, registered in the FTI and imported using GenericSetup.
+
+```xml
+<property name="behaviors">
+    <element value="plone.app.content.interfaces.INameFromTitle" />
+</property>
+```
+
+Other behaviors are added in the same way, by listing additional behavior interfaces as elements of the `behaviors` property.
+
+Behaviors are normally registered with the `<plone:behavior />` ZCML directive.
+When registered, a behavior will create a global utility providing `IBehavior`, which is used to provide some metadata, such as a title and description for the behavior.
+
+You can find and apply behaviors via the {guilabel}`Dexterity Content Types` control panel that is installed with [`plone.app.dexterity`](https://pypi.org/project/plone.app.dexterity/).
+For a list of standard behaviors that ship with Plone, see {ref}`backend-built-in-behaviors-label`.
