Summary of Changes

Hello @pattacini, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request updates the documentation project to use Zensical, a modern static site generator, replacing the deprecated Material for MkDocs. The changes streamline the development environment setup, update local workflow instructions, and adjust theme configurations to ensure compatibility and leverage the new platform's features.

Highlights

• Migration to Zensical: The documentation build system has been migrated from the deprecated Material for MkDocs to Zensical, aligning with the latest recommendations for documentation generation.
• Dockerfile Update: The development container's Dockerfile now installs zensical directly via pip, removing the previous mkdocs and associated dependency fetching steps.
• Documentation Updates: The README.md has been updated to reflect the new installation and serving commands for zensical in both local and conda environments, ensuring users follow the correct setup procedures.
• Theme Configuration Adjustment: The mkdocs.yml configuration file has been updated to use lucide icons for theme toggles and adjusted the dark mode accent color to orange, likely to better integrate with the Zensical theme.

🧠 New Feature in Public Preview: You can now enable Memory to help Gemini Code Assist learn from your team's feedback. This makes future code reviews more consistent and personalized to your project's style. Click here to enable Memory in your admin console.

This pull request migrates the documentation generator from mkdocs-material to its successor, Zensical. The changes update installation instructions in the Dockerfile and README.md, and adjust theme settings in mkdocs.yml to use new icons and colors.
