    It looks like there is no Umbraco back office tool to create Grid Editors and there is no documentation specific to Umbraco 8.

    The Umbraco 7 documentation for creating Grid Editors can be found at https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/getting-started/backoffice/property-editors/built-in-property-editors/grid-layout/build-your-own-editor

    I haven't tried it yet, but this should do it.

    IMHO, this is a major fail from Umbraco on v8. The grid layout is a major part of Umbraco now and I would have thought the back office tool would be essential.

    LeBlender is also not available yet for Umbraco 8.

    what is the purpose, if I may ask?

    in your editor controller, you could use the editor service to open the content picker.

    Have a look at the relatedlinks editor to see how:
