January 2026 monthly summary for ros2_documentation: Delivered two major feature updates that enhance user onboarding and support operations, plus targeted documentation quality improvements. Replaced Discord with Zulip references across docs and issue templates to unify community channels, and overhauled Windows ROS 2 installation flow to use Command Prompt, added an installation script, and corrected paths and formatting. These changes reduce setup friction, standardize support channels, and improve maintainability of docs.

This work aligns Windows installation steps with the current ROS 2 flow, improves clarity, and reduces user setup errors.
