574e23e834 fix: Separate Example Applications and SDKs/Integrations more clearly (#11569)
# Which Problems Are Solved

The distinction between Example Applications and SDKs has not been
clear. In the SDKs section a lot of Example applications where listed.
Also In the SDKs it was not really clear what the SDKs actually are.
Also some examples and skds are outdated and not well maintained
anymore.

# How the Problems Are Solved

- Moved all example app guides to the Example Applications Section
- Restructured SDKs Nav --> SDKs & Integrations: Frontend & Mobile,
Backend & API, Management API Clients
- Removed unnecessary / outdated guides
- Remove ids in framework.json for frameworks which shouldn't be
rendered in console

## Todos:
- Update SDKs Introduction page
- Add links to common oidc libs for most used frameworks

@zitadel/docs

Documentation for Zitadel, built with Fumadocs and Next.js.

Getting Started

Ensure you have followed the root quick start to set up dependencies.

Local Development

Start the development server:

pnpm nx run @zitadel/docs:dev

The site will be available at http://localhost:3000.

Scripts

Key scripts for documentation workflows:

Script Description
dev Starts the development server.
build Builds the production application.
fetch:remote-content Fetches remote tags and referenced content.
generate Runs all generation steps (fetch:remote-content, generate:proto-docs, generate:api-reference, generate:index-pages).
check:links Validates content integrity (broken links, missing frontmatter, schema errors).
check-types Validates typescript types.
test Runs all validation steps (check-types, check:links).
lint checks for code style and syntax errors (ESLint).
clean Cleans the build output and generated files.

Validation

  • Code Quality: Run pnpm lint to check for syntax and style issues in JS/TS/MDX files.
  • Content Integrity: Run pnpm check:links to validate content structure, including:
    • Broken internal links
    • Missing required front-matter (e.g., title)
    • Image references

Build Process

The docs build process automatically handling the following steps via generate:

  1. Downloads required protoc plugins.
  2. Generates gRPC documentation from proto files.
  3. Generates API documentation from OpenAPI specs.
  4. Generates index files for directory structures.

Style Guide

  • Variables: Use environment variables in code snippets where possible.
  • Embedded Content: Use _filename.mdx for content embedded in other pages (not indexed individually).
  • Code Embedding: Use the file property in code blocks to embed code from the repo.
  • Voice: Use active voice and sentence case for titles.

Refer to the Google Developer Style Guide for general guidelines.

Adding Content

All documentation content is located in the content directory. Note that the system strictly accepts only .mdx files.

To add a new page:

  1. Create a .mdx file in the appropriate subdirectory of content.
  2. Register the new page in the sidebar settings at lib/sidebar-data.ts to make it accessible in the navigation.

Pull Requests

Use docs(<scope>): <short summary> for PR titles. Pass quality checks before submitting:

pnpm nx run @zitadel/docs:build
pnpm nx run @zitadel/docs:check:links

You can also run specific steps individually:

  • pnpm fetch:remote-content
  • pnpm generate:api-reference
