d8ea041c56 docs: introduce versioned docs and migrate to fuma (#11166)
## 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.

title: ZITADEL Command Line Interface
sidebar_label: Overview
---
This documentation serves as your guide to interacting with Zitadel through the command line interface (CLI). The Zitadel CLI empowers you to manage various aspects of your Zitadel system efficiently from your terminal.
This introductory section provides a brief overview of what the Zitadel CLI offers and who can benefit from using it.
Let's dive in!
## Download the CLI
Download the CLI for [Linux](/self-hosting/deploy/linux#install-zitadel) or [MacOS](/self-hosting/deploy/macos#install-zitadel).
## Quick start
The easiest way to start ZITADEL is by following the [docker compose example](/self-hosting/deploy/compose) which executes the commands for you.
## Initialize the database
The `zitadel init`-command sets up the zitadel database. The statements executed need a user with `ADMIN`-privilege. See [init phase](/self-hosting/manage/updating_scaling#the-init-phase) for more information.
## Setup ZITADEL
The `zitadel setup`-command further sets up the database created using `zitadel init`. This command only requires the user created in the previous step. See [setup phase](/self-hosting/manage/updating_scaling#the-setup-phase) for more information.
## Start ZITADEL
The `zitadel start`-command runs the ZITADEL server. See [runtime phase](/self-hosting/manage/updating_scaling#the-runtime-phase) for more information.
The `zitadel start-from-setup`-command first executes [the setup phase](#setup-zitadel) and afterwards runs the ZITADEL server.
The `zitadel start-from-init`-command first executes [the init phase](#Initialize-the-database), afterwards [the setup phase](#setup-zitadel) and lastly runs the ZITADEL server.
