docs(core): update Nx installation steps to prefer global installs (#31513)

This PR makes the global install more prominent. This is important for
non-JS workspaces since they may not have node or npm available. The
installation flow should be:

1. Install Nx (e.g. `brew install nx`)
2. Run `nx init` in your project

The `create-nx-workspace` is removed since it's already mentioned on the
intro page, and it is covered in tutorials. It is also not technically
an "install" command.

Preview:

**Note:** The cross-platform NPM install is still featured first because
it'll work for everyone. It shouldn't be a concern for non-JS devs since
other tools like Claude Code also has `npm install --global` as their
install step.

-The advantage of a global installation is that you don't have to prefix your commands with npx, yarn or pnpm. The global Nx installation hands off the process execution to the local Nx installation in your repository, which eliminates any issues with outdated globally installed packages.
+## Adding Nx Into Your Repository
 
-## Install Nx in a Non-Javascript Repo
+To add Nx to an existing repository run:
-
-Nx can manage its own installation without requiring a `package.json` file or a `node_modules` folder. This type of installation is useful for repositories that may not contain any JavaScript or TypeScript (e.g. .Net or Java based workspaces that want to leverage Nx features). In this setup, the Nx CLI is all contained within a `.nx` folder. To set this up run the `nx init` command in a folder without a `package.json` file.
 
 ```shell
-npx nx init
+nx init
 ```
 
-See the [install Nx in a non-javascript repo](/recipes/installation/install-non-javascript) recipe for more information.
+**Note:** You can also manually install the nx NPM package and create a [nx.json](/reference/nx-json) to configure it. Learn more about [adopting Nx in an existing project](/recipes/adopting-nx)
+
+### Starter Repository
+
+To create a starter repository, you can use the `create-nx-workspace` command. This will create a new Nx workspace with a default configuration and example applications.
+
+```shell
+npx create-nx-workspace@latest
+```
 
 ## Update Nx
 
 When you update Nx, Nx will also [automatically update your dependencies](/features/automate-updating-dependencies) if you have an [Nx plugin](/concepts/nx-plugins) installed for that dependency. To update Nx, run:
 
 ```shell
-npx nx migrate latest
+nx migrate latest
 ```
 
 This will create a `migrations.json` file with any update scripts that need to be run. Run them with:
 
 ```shell
-npx nx migrate --run-migrations
+nx migrate --run-migrations
 ```
