 ## Unreleased
 
+### Added
+- Introduced `JsonMapper::createWithDefaults()` to bootstrap the mapper with Symfony reflection, PhpDoc extractors, and a default property accessor.
+
 ### Changed
 - Marked `MagicSunday\\JsonMapper\\JsonMapper` as `final` and promoted constructor dependencies to `readonly` properties for consistent visibility.
 - Declared `MagicSunday\\JsonMapper\\Converter\\CamelCasePropertyNameConverter` as `final` and immutable.

 The first call produces an `Article` instance with a populated `CommentCollection`; the second call returns an `ArticleCollection` containing `Article` objects.
 
+`JsonMapper::createWithDefaults()` wires the default Symfony `PropertyInfoExtractor` (reflection + PhpDoc) and a `PropertyAccessor`. When you need custom extractors, caching, or a specialised accessor you can still instantiate `JsonMapper` manually with your preferred services.
+
 Test coverage: `tests/JsonMapper/DocsQuickStartTest.php`.

 ## JsonMapper (final)
 The `JsonMapper` class is the main entry point for mapping arbitrary JSON structures to PHP objects. The class is `final`; prefer composition over inheritance.
