I want "Introduction" instead of "1. Introduction". The same with all sections and subsections. In the KoMa-classes if possible
I've googled like mad, but the only solution I found is usinge \chapter*{introduction} and then manually adding those chapters to the index-counter and the ToC.
I can't believe that there's no easy solution to this. Lots of people write informal books in latex which shouldn't look like scientific standard publications
From the KOMA-Script manual, section 3.16, "Document Structure":
So to deactivate numbering of chapters, section, subsection etc. and only number parts, you can use
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{\partnumdepth}
in the document preamble.
And if you do not want to number anything:
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{-\maxdimen}
\DeclareSectionCommand that allows to set your own levels and -\maxdimen is the lowest available value. Maybe it would even be a good idea, if KOMA-Script would not allow to set a real level of -\maxdimen, because it uses this value internally also to locally deactivate numbering.
