0.0.3

Release 0.0.3 – Changelog Summary

This release focuses on table styling and rendering flexibility, plus quality-of-life improvements to docs, tests, and the build pipeline. Users get cleaner defaults, easier per-cell customization, and a smoother integration experience.

• Per-Column & Per-Cell Classes
  You can now attach classes to columns (head.columns[].class) and individual cells (data[].data_class[colId]) as well as whole rows (data[].class).
  This enables precise styling (e.g., highlight cells/rows) without manual DOM work.

• “Options” Column Styling
  New .avalynx-datatable-options CSS utility centers content, keeps it compact, and prevents wrapping in action columns.
  Actions like “Edit/Delete” render neatly and consistently.

• Better Default Table Layout
  Default className now includes align-middle for improved vertical alignment in Bootstrap tables.
  Tables look more polished out of the box with no extra CSS.

• Raw HTML Cell Support
  Columns marked with raw: true render HTML directly (e.g., buttons/links).
  Great for action cells and rich content without custom renderers.

• JSON Response Format Documented
  README now documents the expected JSON structure (columns, data, counts, sorting, search).
  Faster server integration and fewer guesswork errors.

• Examples & CDN Version Bump
  Examples updated to reference 0.0.3 on jsDelivr for both CSS and JS.
  Copy-paste setup stays current and reliable.

• Changelog & Docs Polish
  Added/updated CHANGELOG, README wording, and JSDoc alignment.
  Clearer guidance and less confusion for new adopters.

• Build & Test Pipeline
  Introduces a minimal build step (ESM export helper) and Jest tests with jsdom and Babel config.
  Improves reliability and paves the way for future contributions.

• Dependency Maintenance
  Dependabot bump of ws to 8.17.1 merged.
  Keeps the toolchain current and secure.

Compatibility: Backward compatible.
