How to convert an old Drush make project into this project template

1. Generate a raw composerfile of your old Drupal 7 project with drush generate-makefile my.make and drush make-convert my.make --format=composer > raw-composer.json.
2. Use the require list of raw-composer.json as a starting point for the requirements of the new project composer.json. Generate a new makefile, even if you already have one, to avoid problems with legacy issues.
3. Perform a requirements audit and remove / replace any legacy and unused components.
4. Move custom modules / themes to either web/sites/all/modules/custom or web/sites/all/themes/custom, respectively.
5. Run PHP compliance tests with the lando phpcs tool and update the code if necessary.
6. Use the registry_rebuild module to fix project paths.
7. Enable composer_autoloader module.
