## 🔧 How to Use

### Quick Start

1. **Setup Repository**:
   ```bash
   git clone <your-repo>
   cd password_manager
   ```

2. **Configure Secrets** (in GitHub):
   - `CARGO_REGISTRY_TOKEN`: For crates.io publishing
   - `SNYK_TOKEN`: For security scanning (optional)

3. **Enable Actions**:
   - Go to Settings → Actions → General
   - Enable "Allow all actions and reusable workflows"

### Development Workflow

```bash
# Install development tools
make setup

# Run tests
make test

# Build release
make release

# Security audit
make security

# Format code
make format

# Quick development cycle
make dev
```

### Release Process

```bash
# Automated release
./scripts/release.sh 1.0.0

# Or manual process
make release-create
```

### Installation Methods

```bash
# From source
cargo install --path .

# From crates.io (after publishing)
cargo install password_manager

# From GitHub releases
# Download binary for your platform and add to PATH
```
