December 2024: Stabilized the installation workflow for SemanticResultFormats by removing the SMW requirement from composer.json to prevent conflicts with SMW and SRF when using non-Composer methods (e.g., Git). This change reduces redundant downloads during composer install, shortens setup times, and improves reliability for downstream projects. Implemented in a focused commit (503e3f43bd04e068e8256b57d911f2859b07658c) as part of #787. Technologies/skills demonstrated include dependency management with Composer, PHP project maintenance, and Git-based workflows.
