AdminController is the main CMS controller, but LeftAndMain is still the main CMS UI controller which is what this section is talking about.

Unrelated - link syntax was the wrong way around.

| [`LeftAndMain`](api:SilverStripe\Admin\LeftAndMain) has historically been the superclass for all controllers routed in `/admin/*` (i.e. all controllers used in the CMS). That class includes a lot of boilerplate functionality for setting up a menu, edit form, etc which a lot of controllers don't need. | ||

||
| A new [`AdminController`](api:SilverStripe\Admin\AdminController) has been created which provides the `/admin/*` routing functionality and permission checks that `LeftAndMain` used to be responsible for. If you have a controller which needs to be routed through `/admin/*` with the relevant CMS permission checks, but which does *not* need a menu item on the left or an edit form, you should update that class to be a subclass of `AdminController` instead. |

I'm over-simplifying here - no need to mention that AdminRootController does the actual routing part, I think.

Also not mentioning anything about formschema here because there's a follow-up card which will change where that code lives and I don't want to write a bunch of doc and then change it immediately afterward.
