Typically one would define these from "bottom to top" - defining properties, then templates, and so on, but [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Page_Schemas Page Schemas] provides an interface that makes it much easier for doing it "top to bottom" by defining a schema that then can be used to generate the relevant forms, templates, and properties. This order gets messier with longer-lived wikis that then reuse properties and templates across categories, but we'll start with a simplified example of creating [[:Category:Resource]] | Typically one would define these from "bottom to top" - defining properties, then templates, and so on, but [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Page_Schemas Page Schemas] provides an interface that makes it much easier for doing it "top to bottom" by defining a schema that then can be used to generate the relevant forms, templates, and properties.
