I have looked around here and the documentation but cannot figure out how the backend made by https://docs.medusajs.com/create-medusa-app differs from https://docs.medusajs.com/development/backend/install. Which one do I use if I want to create my own marketplace using medusa?

nope, just wondering where I should start from
I am following this guide: https://medusajs.com/blog/extending-medusa-usecase-marketplace/
and it tells me to start from the backend install under Prerequisites, https://docs.medusajs.com/development/backend/install
I have the quickstart already downloaded though
so should I start from my quickstart donwloaded or set up backend from scratch

one thing I found: the quickstart does not have a databse set up. it pulls the sample data from a .json. in the backend install guide they recommend you to set up either postgres/sqlite and show you how to configure your backend's medusa.config file to connect to the local db
what I gathered is if you have the quickstart, then you should start from the backend quickstart page: https://docs.medusajs.com/development/backend/install. just skip the step "2. Create a new Medusa project" since you already have the backend starter generated from the medusa quickstart.
thats all I know
