- **Dependencies**: Core and development dependencies
- **Build system**: Modern setuptools configuration
- **Tool configuration**: Pylint, coverage, pytest settings

### GitHub Actions

- **Pull Request Checks**: Automated testing and linting on PRs
- **Publishing**: Automated PyPI publishing on releases
- **Modular Workflows**: Reusable workflow components

## 📚 Documentation

### Building Documentation

```bash
# Install documentation dependencies
pip install sphinx sphinx-rtd-theme

# Build documentation
sphinx-build -b html docs/ docs/_build/html
```

### Code Documentation

The template follows Google-style docstrings:

```python
def greet_with_name(self, name: str) -> str:
    """
    Return a personalized greeting message.
    
    Args:
        name (str): The name to include in the greeting.
        
    Returns:
        str: A personalized greeting message.
    """
    return f'Hello, {name}!'
```

## 🚀 Publishing
