**Is your feature request related to a problem or challenge? Please describe what you are trying to do.** The underlying implementation of arrow arrays has changed significantly due to the work in https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/3880 There are now several important classes such as `ScalarBuffer`, `NullBuffer`, `Buffer` `PrimitiveArray`, etc that underlying the arrays in addition to the "classic" `ArrayData`. In addition after https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/issues/3879 is complete I believe these types will be more publicly exposed through the various Arrow APIs. **Describe the solution you'd like** I would like documentation / diagrams / something that briefly explains the key structures ad how they are related to each other. Perhaps we can take inspiration (or copy/modify) the wonderful guide that @jorgecarleitao wrote for arrow2: https://jorgecarleitao.github.io/arrow2/main/guide/ **Describe alternatives you've considered** **Additional context** See details on https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/pull/4061#issuecomment-1505690831 -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
