Phase D foundation. Configures the pragmatic four-section sidebar (Getting started / Guides / Reference / Concepts) and replaces the template example pages with grounded content built on the shared "library" example database (authors/books/members/loans): - Getting started: installation, first project, simple vs advanced, the example library. - Reference: Types (all ten + serial/shortid + advanced aliases), Tables (create/drop, compound PK, advanced CREATE TABLE). - Concepts: projects & storage (readable files, derived database, autosave, temp projects). - Guides: Build the library (draft, to be refined for teaching). Command syntax grounded in en-US.yaml usage/help, command.rs, and types.rs (verified against tests). Records the settled doc decisions in STYLE.md. Build green (10 pages, Pagefind); content clean of "DSL"/engine-name.

Starlight looks for .md or .mdx files in the src/content/docs/ directory. Each file is exposed as a route based on its file name.
Images can be added to src/assets/ and embedded in Markdown with a relative link.
Static assets, like favicons, can be placed in the public/ directory.
