Attribute

What it does

This class extends Magento's EAV attribute model specifically for catalog entities (products, categories).

Developers use this when creating or managing custom product/category attributes, as it handles attribute validation, locking rules, and ensures proper event dispatching during save operations.

It provides additional catalog-specific functionality like search weight, filtering options, and price rule usage that aren't available in the base EAV attribute model.
