1.0.4

Release 1.0.4 – Changelog Summary

Version 1.0.4 introduces a clearer and more flexible breakpoint option for controlling responsive layout behavior in the top and bottom table sections. This improves API clarity and gives developers explicit control over Bootstrap breakpoint usage.

  Renamed internal option from md to breakpoint across source, tests, and documentation.
  Makes the intent of the option clearer and easier to understand when configuring responsive behavior.

• Dynamic Responsive Class Handling
  Layout classes are now generated using flex-{breakpoint}-row based on the configured option.
  Ensures consistent and predictable responsive alignment of top and bottom control sections.

• Documentation & CDN Updates
  Updated README examples and jsDelivr references to version 1.0.4 and the new option name.
  Helps users adopt the new configuration seamlessly.

• Bigger, Better Test Suite
  Jest coverage was significantly expanded (table rendering, sorting, pagination, loaders, edge cases).
  Boosts reliability and guards against regressions.

• Modernized Dev Container
  Dockerfile updated to PHP 8.3, Node 18, and Yarn (plus minor tooling).
  Faster, more predictable local and CI environments.

• Docs & Examples Version Bump
  README and example pages now point to 1.0.1 on jsDelivr.
  Copy-paste snippets fetch the current production build.

• Repo Hygiene
  Added ai.txt to .gitignore.
  Keeps the repo clean by avoiding accidental commits of local AI artifacts.

Compatibility: Backward compatible.
