Setting a static IP address on-device via dhcpcd.conf (as Johan has 
done) is officially documented by the RPi Foundation:

https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/configuration.html#static-ip-addresses


Furthermore, as far as I recall, dhcpcd has been Raspbian's/RaspberryPi 
OS's approach to auto-configure network integration from the start.

Beginning with RPi OS 11/Bullseye, dhcpcd can be replaced by 
NetworkManager, but dhcpcd still remains the default network management 
tool:
