MarieandGitHub 96aef62ae4 [Apps] Get rid of .yarn binaries in apps (#17306)
Fixes https://github.com/twentyhq/core-team-issues/issues/1956

**Problem**
Within an app, the `.yarn/releases/` folder contains executable Yarn
binaries that run when executing any yarn command (`.yarnrc` file
indicates yarn path to be `.yarn/releases/yarn-4.9.2.cjs `.)
This is a supply chain attack vector: a malicious actor could submit a
PR with a compromised `yarn-4.9.2.cjs binary`, which would execute
arbitrary code on developers' machines or CI systems.

**Fix**
Actually, thanks to Corepack, we don't need to store and execute this
binary.
Corepack can be seen as the manager of a package manager: in
`package.json` we indicate a packageManager version like
`"packageManager": "yarn@4.9.2"`, and when executing `yarn` Corepack
will securely fetch the verified version from npm, avoiding the risk of
executing a compromised binary committed to the repository. This was
already in our app's package.json template but we were not using it!

We can now
- remove the folder containing the binary from our app template
base-application (that is scaffolded when creating an app through cli),
`.yarn/releases/`, and remove `yarnPath: .yarn/releases/yarn-4.9.2.cjs`
from its .yarnrc
- remove them from the community apps that were already published in the
repo
- add .yarn to gitignore 

**Tested**
This has been tested and works for app created in the repo, outside the
repo, and existing apps in the repo

  • Developers (24 pages) - Technical documentation for developers
  • Twenty UI (25 pages) - UI component library documentation

🚀 Local Development

The documentation will be available at http://localhost:3000

📝 Editing Content

Adding/Editing Pages

  1. Edit MDX files in the appropriate directory:

    • user-guide/ - User documentation
    • developers/ - Developer documentation
    • twenty-ui/ - Component documentation
  2. Update navigation/base-structure.json if you need to change the tab/group hierarchy or add/remove pages. This file stays in the repo and is not uploaded to Crowdin.

  3. Keep the translation template (navigation/navigation.template.json) in sync by running yarn docs:generate-navigation-template after editing the base structure. This template is the only file that should be pushed to Crowdin.

  4. For each translated locale pulled from Crowdin, ensure a packages/twenty-docs/l/<language>/navigation.json file exists. These files contain labels only; page slugs always come from the base structure.

  5. Run yarn docs:generate to rebuild docs.json from the base structure + translated labels.

MDX Format

All documentation pages use MDX format with frontmatter:

---
title: Page Title
description: Page description
image: /images/path/to/image.png
---

Your content here...

Adding Images

  1. Place images in the /images/ directory
  2. Reference them in MDX: ![Alt text](/images/your-image.png)
  3. Or use Mintlify Frame component:
<Frame>
  <img src="/images/your-image.png" alt="Description" />
</Frame>

🔧 Configuration

  • navigation/base-structure.json - Source of truth for tabs, groups, icons, and page slugs (English only, not sent to Crowdin).
  • navigation/navigation.template.json - Generated translation template (labels only) that is uploaded to Crowdin.
  • l/<language>/navigation.json - Locale-specific label files pulled from Crowdin.
  • docs.json - Generated Mintlify configuration (always run yarn docs:generate after modifying navigation files).
  • package.json - Package dependencies and scripts (docs:generate, docs:generate-navigation-template, …).
  • project.json - Nx workspace configuration
