Problem Description
A customer would like to order content by date. However, the date field is under a modular component, which doesn't support order by right now.
Solution
This is a PoC that uses the app framework to create a custom date field UIX, that can be added to any model at the top level. Its values changes whenever a user picks a date under a modular component.
Keep in mind that it's a workaround. So if you interact with the data via api you are responsible for filling both fields in sync.
Obs.: It has been created for a very specific use case. If one would like to use it, the could should be changed, as field names are hardcoded.
