Thanks everyone for your contributions. I take due note that "Docs for J4/5 are a work in progress" !
I don't tend to use IDEs (being a dinosaur!). I believe that would give me function signatures (which is a step in the right direction), but wouldn't explain what each parameter actually does. An example is the $new parameter to getQuery(). I've seen in several places that getQuery "takes an optional argument, $new, which can be true or false (the default being false)." But nowhere telling me what its significance is. (I can make a guess in this case, but I may well not realise the full implications.)
Anyway, I have enough now to make progress in my development. I just hope I'm not falling foul of too many deprecations!
