Hello,
I was trying to read through the documentation on Joomla and can't figure out this part :-
why when i replace $app = JFactory::getApplication();
with
$app = Factory::getApplication();
I get a class does not exist error
JFactory is a class that shows under Joomla 2.5 when i search the Joomla API site ( https://api.joomla.org/)
Factory is a class that shows under Joomla 3.8 when i search the Joomla API site ( https://api.joomla.org/)
Also there is a mapping between these classes that i can find on GitHub (https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/blob/3.9-dev/libraries/classmap.php#L300)
so shouldn't $app = Factory::getApplication(); work exactly the same as $app = JFactory::getApplication(); ?

Checking through the source code of 3.8.7 it appears to use JFactory not Factory.

Yes,
JFactory works, but the documentation for 3.8 says to use Factory instead. Confusing , not sure what is the best way to use the documentation without wasting time on errors that can be avoided? any suggestions ?

\Joomla\CMS\Factory::getApplication()
As you can see in the classmap that you mentioned yourself, it registers
the alias JFactory for the class in the namespace \Joomla\CMS\Factory
