martmull 0970f85cd2 docs(apps): align project structure and testing pages with the actual scaffold (#22690)
Part 3 of the app-docs audit series (after #22688 and #22689). Verified
by scaffolding a fresh app with `create-twenty-app` and diffing the docs
against the generated files and the template in
`packages/create-twenty-app/src/constants/template`.

## What this fixes

**getting-started/project-structure.mdx**
- The documented tree was missing most of what the scaffolder actually
generates: the starter welcome page (`front-components/`,
`navigation-menu-items/`, `page-layouts/`), the real test files
(`global-setup.ts`, `application-config.test.ts`,
`schema.integration-test.ts` — not `setup-test.ts` /
`app-install.integration-test.ts`), `cd.yml`, `vitest.unit.config.ts`,
and `AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` (the docs said `LLMS.md`, which isn't
generated).
- Dependency snippet showed `^2.13.0`; the scaffolder pins its own
version (currently 2.20.0) and also adds `twenty-ui`.
- `twenty build` → `twenty dev:build`.

**operations/testing.mdx**
- The Vitest setup section described a config that diverges from the
scaffold (uses `setupFiles` instead of `globalSetup`, writes the SDK
config to `os.tmpdir()/.twenty-sdk-test/config.json` — a path the CLI
never reads). Replaced with the actual pattern: `globalSetup` +
`~/.twenty/config.test.json` (what the CLI reads under `NODE_ENV=test`)
+ `appDevOnce` sync and uninstall-teardown.
- The CI section described a `spawn-twenty-docker-image` action and a
4-step workflow; the scaffolded `ci.yml` uses
`spawn-twenty-app-dev-test` and also runs lint, typecheck, and unit
tests. This section previously contradicted `operations/publishing.mdx`
— it now gives a short accurate summary and links to Publishing for the
full walkthrough of both workflows (de-duplicating the two pages).
- Added `appDevOnce` to the programmatic API table (used by the
scaffolded global setup).

**getting-started/troubleshooting.mdx**
- Node requirement made precise (`^24.5.0`), `twenty build` → `twenty
dev:build`.

Only English sources were touched; `l/<locale>` copies come from
Crowdin.

Installation

Cloud

The fastest way to get started. Sign up at twenty.com and spin up a workspace in under a minute, with no infrastructure to manage and always up to date.

Build an app

Scaffold a new app with the Twenty CLI:

npx create-twenty-app my-app

Define objects, fields, and views as code:

import { defineObject, FieldType } from 'twenty-sdk/define';

export default defineObject({
  nameSingular: 'deal',
  namePlural: 'deals',
  labelSingular: 'Deal',
  labelPlural: 'Deals',
  fields: [
    { name: 'name', label: 'Name', type: FieldType.TEXT },
    { name: 'amount', label: 'Amount', type: FieldType.CURRENCY },
    { name: 'closeDate', label: 'Close Date', type: FieldType.DATE_TIME },
  ],
});

Then ship it to your workspace:

npx twenty app:publish --private

See the app development guide for objects, views, agents, and logic functions.

Self-hosting

Run Twenty on your own infrastructure with Docker Compose, or contribute locally via the local setup guide.
