## [0.1.0] - 2025-10-19

### 🎉 Initial Public Beta

First public beta release of MnesiaEx - a functional, monadic wrapper for Mnesia built with category theory principles.

**⚠️ Beta Status**: This is a beta release. API may change based on community feedback. Use with caution in production.

### ✨ Features

#### Core Functionality
- **Schema Management** - Create, delete, and manage Mnesia schemas across nodes
- **Table Operations** - Full CRUD operations with functional API
- **Query Builder** - Intuitive query interface with conditions and filters
- **Transactions** - Automatic transaction handling with `!` functions

#### Advanced Features
- **Auto-increment Counters** - Automatic ID generation for specified fields
- **TTL (Time To Live)** - Record expiration with automatic cleanup
- **Backup & Restore** - Full database backup with advanced restore options
- **Event System** - Real-time event subscriptions for table changes
- **Multi-format Export** - Export tables to JSON, CSV, or Erlang terms

#### Architecture
- **Pure Functional** - No side effects, all functions are pure
- **Monadic Composition** - Uses `Monad.Error`, `Monad.Maybe`, `Monad.List`
- **Category Theory** - Built following categorical principles
- **Type Safe** - Comprehensive `@spec` for all public functions
- **Zero Warnings** - Clean compilation with no warnings

### 📚 Documentation
- Comprehensive module documentation in English
- Extensive examples for all functions
- Professional README with quick start guide
- Architecture documentation
- Contributing guidelines

### 🧪 Testing
