The wiki provides you all the information needed to get up and running! Make sure you don't skip sections if this is your first visit, as there might be important details in there for you.
The documentation will provide information on how to prepare, configure and start zigbee2mqtt, but also on how to customize the setup to fit your needs.
If you aren't familiar with zigbee terminology make sure you read this to help you out.

See Supported devices to check whether your device is supported. There is quite an extensive list, including devices from vendors like Xiaomi, Ikea, Philips, OSRAM and more.
If it's not listed in Supported devices, support can be added (fairly) easy, see How to support new devices.
If you need assistance you can check opened issues. Feel free to help with Pull Requests when you were able to fix things or add new devices or just share the love on social media.
