v1.0.0 – Initial public release

MicroLogger v1.0.0 is the first stable release of a lightweight, fast and secure PHP/MySQL web application for managing microbiological test logs in food laboratories and QA environments.

This initial release delivers the full core workflow:

• Structured microbiology log creation (multi-day evaluations)
• Centralized product lookup with API caching
• Full audit trail (create / update / delete with before–after values)
• PDF exports for logs and tables
• Statistics dashboards for QC monitoring
• Secure authentication with role-based access
• Modern, clean UI optimized for daily lab use

Why MicroLogger exists:

• Replaces inconsistent Excel-based microbiology logs
• Improves traceability and audit readiness (HACCP / ISO 22000)
• Speeds up data entry for high-volume laboratories
• Centralizes QC data, documents and user activity
• Turns “where is that file?” into “it’s logged.”

Technical maturity of v1.0.0:

• PHP 7.2 compatible (production-safe legacy environments)
• MySQL schema with indexing for performance
• Input validation & CSRF protection
• Central error handling and logging
• Clean separation of actions / pages / config
• No frameworks, no magic — just readable, auditable PHP

This project combines applied microbiology with practical software engineering to modernize internal quality control workflows — without overengineering, subscriptions or vendor lock-in.

Built for labs that want control, clarity and traceability.
