## What
Shorten the `title` frontmatter on 20 docs pages so that the rendered
`<title>` tag stays within the 70-character SEO limit.
The root layout appends ` | ZITADEL Docs` (15 chars) to every page
title, meaning the raw frontmatter `title` must be ≤ 55 characters. A
site scan flagged all 20 pages for the "Title too long" warning (titles
ranged from 71 to 92 characters in the final rendered tag).
## Why
Search engines may truncate or ignore `<title>` tags longer than 70
characters, hurting click-through rates and keyword relevance in search
results.
## How
Each title was rewritten to:
- Fit within 55 characters (leaving room for ` | ZITADEL Docs`)
- Front-load the primary search keyword (product name, protocol, or
feature)
- Include "ZITADEL" where users realistically search for `{feature}
ZITADEL`
- Avoid generic filler words ("Configure", "Set up", "Support for")
All 20 files already have a `sidebar_label` field that preserves the
original descriptive title for sidebar navigation — no navigation
changes result from this PR.

# Which Problems Are Solved
For username/email + password, "login data" seems like uncommon and
confusing terminology to me.
I also think "loginname" is that, maybe it should be written like "login
name" or "username", but I'm having oversight with that now because it
seems to be the way Zitadel calls it.
Here's what Gemini has to say:
> Login Credentials: This is the most widely accepted and formal term in
the tech and security industry. A "credential" is an item of information
that confirms an identity. The pair (username/email and password) is the
set of identifiers used to authenticate the user and grant access (i.e.,
log in).
>
> Login Details: This is also very common in general use and often used
interchangeably with "login credentials," especially in user-facing
contexts (e.g., "Please enter your login details"). It is slightly less
formal than "credentials."
>
> Login Data: While technically correct (as the information is data),
this term is less specific and is more commonly used when referring to a
larger collection of information, like a file containing many users'
credentials, or the data transmitted during the login process.
# How the Problems Are Solved
Renames all occurrences of login data or login credentials to login
details.
# Additional Changes
None.
# Additional Context
I believe this is an improvement but feel free to object.

## Todos for release
- [x] Configure Env in docs project on vercel
- [x] Configure Root Path in the docs project on vercel
- [ ] Remove old CSP https://github.com/zitadel/website/pull/1592
## What we did
This pull request migrates the project documentation from the old
`docs/` directory to the new `apps/docs/` directory, introduces a new
documentation system built with Next.js and Fumadocs, and updates all
relevant references, configuration files, and documentation to reflect
this change. It also adds new configuration and ignore files for the new
documentation app, updates CI and linting to exclude the new docs from
certain checks, and revises the contributing guidelines accordingly.
**Documentation System Migration and New Docs App**
* Migrated all documentation from `docs/` to `apps/docs/`, and updated
all references in `README.md`, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and other files to
point to the new location.

and a comprehensive `README.md` with development and contribution
instructions.

**Configuration and Tooling Updates**
* Updated `.github/workflows/codeql.yml`, `.golangci.yaml`, and
`.github/dependabot.yml` to properly handle the new docs app: excluded
`apps/docs` from certain checks, added npm dependency updates for the
docs app, and excluded generated content.

* Updated `.devcontainer/devcontainer.json` to use the latest Go 1.25.3
version for consistency.
**Licensing and Miscellaneous**
* Added `apps/docs/` to the list of licensed directories in
`LICENSING.md`.
These changes ensure the documentation is now maintained in a modern,
scalable system and all project tooling is updated to support the new
structure.
