Developed the initial project bootstrap for the EPF-MDE/git-first-steps repository, establishing a reproducible onboarding baseline to support future feature delivery. The work involved structuring the repository with initial assets, integrating a LeA metadata file within the info directory, and introducing a binary placeholder for future application functions. Updated the AUTHORS file to ensure proper attribution and maintain project transparency. Leveraged Git for version control and repository management, with a focus on asset organization and metadata handling. This foundational setup provided a clear structure for subsequent development, emphasizing maintainability and clarity in artifact management, while laying groundwork for collaborative feature expansion.
