• Testing: Removed test requirements from release process for faster deployment
• Documentation: Updated release process documentation

Changed #

• Git repository: Cleaned up repository history and removed confidential documentation
• Security: Improved gitignore to prevent accidental commit of sensitive files

Fixed #

• Certificate format compatibility: Fixed private key format issues with rustls - now requires PKCS#8 DER format
• Certificate generation: Updated generate_certs.sh to generate proper DER format certificates for Flutter assets
• Documentation improvements: Completely restructured README to lead with substance, removed marketing fluff, and provided clear certificate format guidance

Changed #

• Certificate loading: Example app now loads .der format certificates instead of raw PEM files
• Asset configuration: Updated Flutter assets to include DER format certificate files
• Documentation structure: Streamlined README with beta warnings upfront and consolidated examples

Added #
