Self Hosted Docker DX improvements

[dabeeeenster]

There are some things that would help onboarding for new self hosted installs:

1. The default install creates an Organisation and Project, but does not create any Environments for that Project. We should add the 2 Environments (Development and Production) that are created when a new project is set up in the SaaS platform.

2. It's not possible to create a second project as we limit open source to 1 project, but there's no helper text to explain this. We should add text that states:

Self hosted Flagsmith installations are limited to 1 Project. Learn more with our version comparison.

What I'm failing to understand here: How am I supposed to run Flagsmith on Flagsmith as explained in the docs when I'm unable to create a 2nd project? Am I expected to mix Flagsmith's feature flags with my own in this case?

Hi @levrik, no, you can create a second organisation to hold this project.

@matthewelwell I thought creating a 2nd organisation isn't possible but just found the button on the UI. TBH it's not very obvious 😅

We are currently working on this area of the application. We will be adding a cleaner onboarding experience for new Flagsmith installations. See the PR here for more information on the implementation.
