chore(docs): move feature stage docs to install directory (#17199)
I think the feature stages page should be co-located with releases and not at the entrance of the docs. [preview](https://coder.com/docs/@move-feature-stages/install/releases/feature-stages) --------- Co-authored-by: EdwardAngert <17991901+EdwardAngert@users.noreply.github.com>

# Feature stages
|
||||
|
||||
Some Coder features are released in feature stages before they are generally
|
||||
available.
|
||||
|
||||
If you encounter an issue with any Coder feature, please submit a
|
||||
[GitHub issue](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues) or join the
|
||||
[Coder Discord](https://discord.gg/coder).
|
||||
|
||||
## Feature stages
|
||||
|
||||
| Feature stage | Stable | Production-ready | Support | Description |
|
||||
|----------------------------------------|--------|------------------|-----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
||||
| [Early Access](#early-access-features) | No | No | GitHub issues | For staging only. Not feature-complete or stable. Disabled by default. |
|
||||
| [Beta](#beta) | No | Not fully | Docs, Discord, GitHub | Publicly available. In active development with minor bugs. Suitable for staging; optional for production. Not covered by SLA. |
|
||||
| [GA](#general-availability-ga) | Yes | Yes | License-based | Stable and tested. Enabled by default. Fully documented. Support based on license. |
|
||||
|
||||
## Early access features
|
||||
|
||||
- **Stable**: No
|
||||
- **Production-ready**: No
|
||||
- **Support**: GitHub issues
|
||||
|
||||
Early access features are neither feature-complete nor stable. We do not
|
||||
recommend using early access features in production deployments.
|
||||
|
||||
Coder sometimes releases early access features that are available for use, but are disabled by default.
|
||||
You shouldn't use early access features in production because they might cause performance or stability issues.
|
||||
Early access features can be mostly feature-complete, but require further internal testing and remain in the early access stage for at least one month.
|
||||
|
||||
Coder may make significant changes or revert features to a feature flag at any time.
|
||||
|
||||
If you plan to activate an early access feature, we suggest that you use a
|
||||
staging deployment.
|
||||
|
||||
<details><summary>To enable early access features:</summary>
|
||||
|
||||
Use the [Coder CLI](../../install/cli.md) `--experiments` flag to enable early access features:
|
||||
|
||||
- Enable all early access features:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
coder server --experiments=*
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- Enable multiple early access features:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
coder server --experiments=feature1,feature2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also use the `CODER_EXPERIMENTS` [environment variable](../../admin/setup/index.md).
|
||||
|
||||
You can opt-out of a feature after you've enabled it.
|
||||
|
||||

### Available early access features

||||
|
||||
<!-- Code generated by scripts/release/docs_update_experiments.sh. DO NOT EDIT. -->
|
||||
<!-- BEGIN: available-experimental-features -->
|
||||
|
||||
Currently no experimental features are available in the latest mainline or stable release.
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- END: available-experimental-features -->
|
||||
|
||||
## Beta
|
||||
|
||||
- **Stable**: No
|
||||
- **Production-ready**: Not fully
|
||||
- **Support**: Documentation, [Discord](https://discord.gg/coder), and [GitHub issues](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues)
|
||||
|
||||
Beta features are open to the public and are tagged with a `Beta` label.
|
||||
|
||||
They’re in active development and subject to minor changes.
|
||||
They might contain minor bugs, but are generally ready for use.
|
||||
|
||||
Beta features are often ready for general availability within two-three releases.
|
||||
You should test beta features in staging environments.
|
||||
You can use beta features in production, but should set expectations and inform users that some features may be incomplete.
|
||||
|
||||
We keep documentation about beta features up-to-date with the latest information, including planned features, limitations, and workarounds.
|
||||
If you encounter an issue, please contact your [Coder account team](https://coder.com/contact), reach out on [Discord](https://discord.gg/coder), or create a [GitHub issues](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues) if there isn't one already.
|
||||
While we will do our best to provide support with beta features, most issues will be escalated to the product team.
|
||||
Beta features are not covered within service-level agreements (SLA).
|
||||
|
||||
Most beta features are enabled by default.
|
||||
Beta features are announced through the [Coder Changelog](https://coder.com/changelog), and more information is available in the documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
## General Availability (GA)
|
||||
|
||||
- **Stable**: Yes
|
||||
- **Production-ready**: Yes
|
||||
- **Support**: Yes, [based on license](https://coder.com/pricing).
|
||||
|
||||
All features that are not explicitly tagged as `Early access` or `Beta` are considered generally available (GA).
|
||||
They have been tested, are stable, and are enabled by default.
|
||||
|
||||
If your Coder license includes an SLA, please consult it for an outline of specific expectations.
|
||||
|
||||
For support, consult our knowledgeable and growing community on [Discord](https://discord.gg/coder), or create a [GitHub issue](https://github.com/coder/coder/issues) if one doesn't exist already.
|
||||
Customers with a valid Coder license, can submit a support request or contact your [account team](https://coder.com/contact).
|
||||
|
||||
We intend [Coder documentation](../../README.md) to be the [single source of truth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single_source_of_truth) and all features should have some form of complete documentation that outlines how to use or implement a feature.
|
||||
If you discover an error or if you have a suggestion that could improve the documentation, please [submit a GitHub issue](https://github.com/coder/internal/issues/new?title=request%28docs%29%3A+request+title+here&labels=["customer-feedback","docs"]&body=please+enter+your+request+here).

||||

||||
Some GA features can be disabled for air-gapped deployments.
