Most of the documentation is a snapshot of the old Namesys site (archive.org, 2007-09-29).
There was also a Reiser4 Wiki (archive.org, 2007-07-06) once on pub.namesys.com.
Reiser4 development appears to have stalled and ReiserFS is deprecated and scheduled to be removed from mainline Linux in 2025.

The tools to maintain a ReiserFS (Reiser v3) filesystem are called reiserfsprogs and should be shipped by most distributions. If it doesn't, we have to build it manually.
Install prerequisites:
sudo apt-get install uuid-dev # Debian, Ubuntu sudo yum install libuuid-devel # Fedora sudo zypper install libuuid-devel # openSUSE
Get source:
VER=3.6.24 wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/jeffm/reiserfsprogs/v$VER/reiserfsprogs-$VER.tar.{sign,xz} xz -d reiserfsprogs-$VER.tar.xz gpg --recv-keys 2179E5B2 gpg --verify reiserfsprogs-$VER.tar.sign tar -xf reiserfsprogs-$VER.tar cd reiserfsprogs-$VER
Build & install:
./configure --prefix=/opt/reiserfsprogs && make sudo make install
Or, from the Git tree:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeffm/reiserfsprogs.git reiserfsprogs-git cd reiserfsprogs-git libtoolize --copy --install --force && aclocal && autoheader && autoconf && automake --add-missing ./configure --prefix=/opt/reiserfsprogs && make sudo make install
