#43702 new enhancement

Empty State UX for Posts & Pages screen when there is no content

Description

The default screen people see when they first visit the Posts, Pages, etc., dashboard sections is quite uninspiring.

Taking a cue from WooCommerce's default product screen (screenshot included), we can enhance the default Posts & Pages screens to make it a bit more welcoming to new users.
