A description of the various files are in the README
The year is coming to an end and so we would like to celebrate the major features and improvements added this year, such as the new plugin and networking frameworks alongside the new release channels (outdated pip package be gone!)
The maintainers want to give a sincere "thank you!" to all the people who have contributed to the project in 2023, as well as all of our users.
✨ See you in the new year! ✨
