## Pre-flight Checklist

Before running `cargo publish`:

- [ ] README has installation instructions
- [ ] Examples work correctly

## Common Issues & Solutions

### Issue: Binary too large
**Solution**: Use release build with optimizations
```toml
[profile.release]
lto = true
codegen-units = 1
strip = true
```

**Solution**: Ensure all required fields in Cargo.toml

### Issue: Documentation incomplete
