Problem
The quickstart currently shows npx prisma init --db --output ... as the initialization step.
However, --db provisions a managed Prisma Postgres database (online login + database creation), and is not the right default for users who want a fully local setup (self-managed Postgres).
Proposed change
Clarify the section by presenting two options:
- Local setup (self-managed Postgres):
npx prisma init - Managed Prisma Postgres provisioning:
npx prisma init --db --output ../generated/prisma
Why this matters
This avoids confusion and helps users choose the correct setup path based on whether they want local Postgres or managed Prisma Postgres.
