Release / Packagist

• Publish the repository on GitHub (source: https://github.com/Smiley-Alyx/markforge).
• Create a semver tag (e.g. v0.1.0).
• Submit the repository to Packagist so composer require markforge/markforge works without VCS configuration.

Security

This project is a Markdown renderer. If you render untrusted user input, you must review the HTML output security implications carefully.
