Description

### Is there an existing issue for this?

- [X] I have searched the existing issues

### Does this enhancement require public documentation?

- [X] I have added an Acceptance Criteria item for adding and/or adjusting public documentation (if applicable)

### Problem Statement

Currently, we have an integration of cert-manager in the Helm chart, but it is not intended for proxying external traffic.

https://github.com/Kong/charts/tree/main/charts/kong#cert-manager-integration

We need a guide, similar to the "Get started" document so that users can easily integrate KIC with the cert-manager.

### Proposed Solution

_No response_

### Additional information

_No response_

### Acceptance Criteria

- [ ] Write an article about integrating and using KIC and cert-manager. Describe how to install and deploy them, and configure certificate access through Ingress or gateway API.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing “Get started” documentation and the Kong chart’s cert-manager integration page. Define the article around installing and deploying KIC and cert-manager, then configuring certificate access through Ingress or the Gateway API; done means the guide covers each acceptance criterion clearly.
