[Unreleased]

Added

• Documentation: a plain-language guide to the FWI System, getting started, a cookbook, an API reference, validation notes, an FAQ and a social media kit.
• Six runnable, dependency-free examples in examples/, executed by the test suite so they cannot drift from the code.
• Figures computed by the library (make figures) and a diagram of the chain.
• Issue and pull request templates; an expanded contributing guide.

[1.0.0] - 2026-11-02

Added

• The Van Wagner (1987) FWI chain: FFMC, DMC, DC, ISI, BUI, FWI, and advance() for one day of the chain with an explicit FwiState.
• STANDARD_PARAMS: the standard start-up codes and the 46°N day-length tables.
• Extracted from Limen (src/limen/core/scoring/wildfire/fwi.py at 49425f2), where the history of the equations lives; relicensed under Apache-2.0 by its sole author.
