v1.1 Planning — Developer Ergonomics

[nitestryker]

With v1.0.0 out the door 🎉, it’s time to start planning v1.1 – Developer Ergonomics.

🎯 Focus of v1.1

This milestone is about making SecureCrypto-PythonBridge easier to use for developers:

• 📦 Publish to PyPI (pip install securecrypto-bridge)
• ⚡ CLI entry point (python -m securecrypto ...)
• 🧾 Structured exceptions (e.g., DecryptError, KeyLoadError)
• 🏷️ Richer type hints + docstrings for IDE support
• 🧰 Convenience helpers (encrypt_and_sign, verify_and_decrypt)
• 📚 More examples (API HMAC signing, encrypted notes demo)
• 📊 Benchmarks (AES/Hybrid performance on typical files)

💡 Discussion Points

• Which features should we prioritize first?
• Any blockers you’ve hit using the wrapper?
• Any additional helpers or utilities that would make integration easier?

📅 Next Steps

• Gather community feedback here
• Refine scope into specific issues
• Track progress under milestone v1.1 – Developer Ergonomics
