v0.5.0

[PeteBishwhip]

LaraDocs v0.5.0 🎉

We're halfway to v1.0! This release brings two new quality-assurance commands, multi-version documentation, and full internationalisation support with a language switcher.

✨ Highlights

🌍 Internationalisation
LaraDocs now speaks more than one language. This release adds per-language pages and a language switcher (#18), so your docs can serve a global audience out of the box. Translations are managed through Crowdin, with several rounds of updates landing in this cycle.

📚 Multi-version documentation
You can now publish and maintain docs across multiple versions of your project, letting readers browse the docs that match the release they're actually running.

🔍 New docs:check command
A validation command that catches broken links, detects orphaned pages, and flags redirect cycles before they reach your readers.

📝 New docs:lint command
Validates front-matter across your documentation so misconfigured or incomplete page metadata gets caught early.
