✨🌈 Hello v7​

Following some management decisions, the Chameleon project is facing an unclear future going forward.

To prepare our beloved Mediahuis design system for this moment, we’ve introduced version 7.0.0. This release focuses on decoupling the native and web parts, along with removing a lot of legacy code.

A heartfelt thank you to all the Chameleons who made this product the gem it truly is. 🦎✨
