f9a24072b7 docs: restructure Getting Started around three explicit phases (#20283)
## Summary

Restructures the apps Getting Started doc around the three things a
developer actually has to do, so the mental model is visible upfront and
discoverable when something goes wrong.

**Why this matters:** the previous flow read as one continuous list of
bash commands and prompts, which made it easy to miss that scaffolding,
running a Twenty server, and live-syncing changes are three separate
concepts. When the user hits a failure (Docker not running, server not
up, auth not authorized), they have no mental map for which step they're
in — so they end up retrying `yarn twenty dev`, which is the only
command they remember.

## What changes


**[getting-started.mdx](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/docs/restructure-getting-started-three-phases/packages/twenty-docs/developers/extend/apps/getting-started.mdx):**
- New summary table at the top showing the three-phase arc:

  | Phase | What you do | Tool | Result |
  |---|---|---|---|
| **1. Scaffold** | Generate the app's source code | `npx
create-twenty-app` | A TypeScript project on disk |
| **2. Run a server** | Start a Twenty server to sync into | Docker +
`yarn twenty server` | A running Twenty instance |
| **3. Sync** | Live-sync your code to the server | `yarn twenty dev` |
Your changes appear in the UI |

- Three top-level sections, one per phase, each ending with **"After
this phase: you have X"** so users can self-diagnose where they got
stuck.
- Phase 2 leads with the sentence that was missing before: *"Your app
needs a Twenty server to sync into. The server is a full Twenty instance
— UI, GraphQL API, PostgreSQL — running locally in Docker."* This is the
concept new users were missing.
- Removed the standalone *What are apps?* section — that's what the Core
Concepts page is for. Don't duplicate.
- Tightened wording throughout; same screenshots, same callouts, same
content depth.


**[core-concepts/apps.mdx](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/blob/docs/restructure-getting-started-three-phases/packages/twenty-docs/getting-started/core-concepts/apps.mdx):**
- Removed the install snippet (`npx create-twenty-app`, `cd`, `yarn
twenty dev`) — it duplicated Getting Started and the two examples used
different directory names.
- Updated the link card to reflect the new three-phase structure.

## Out of scope (mentioned for context, not done here)

- The "Docker is not running" message rewrite: separate PR
([#20280](https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/20280)).
- A `yarn twenty start` one-command bootstrap that auto-starts the
server before `dev`. Worth doing — keeping it out of this docs PR.
- Auto-offering to start the server when `yarn twenty dev` finds no
running one. Same.
- An "agent path" doc (single-page, imperative, for AI assistants) —
separate effort.

## Test plan
- [x] `npx nx lint twenty-docs` passes (no new warnings)
- [x] All `<Note>`, `<Warning>`, `<Card>`, image refs preserved
- [ ] Render and click through both pages once merged and previewed

The command pulls the image, compares it against the one the container
was created from, and only recreates the container if the image actually
changed. Your data volumes are preserved — only the container is
replaced.

69868a0ab6 docs: remove alpha warning from apps pages except skills & agents (#19919)
## Summary
- Remove the \"Apps are currently in alpha\" warning from 8 pages under
`developers/extend/apps/` (getting-started, architecture/building,
data-model, layout, logic-functions, front-components, cli-and-testing,
publishing).
- Keep the warning on the Skills & Agents page only, and reword it to
scope it to that feature: \"Skills and agents are currently in alpha.
The feature works but is still evolving.\"

## Test plan
- [ ] Preview docs build and confirm the warning banner no longer
appears on the 8 pages above.
- [ ] Confirm the warning still renders on the Skills & Agents page with
the updated wording.
