3. New features and bug fixes get a test where that makes sense.
4. Document changes to the file format in [docs/FILE_FORMAT.md](docs/FILE_FORMAT.md) (and its German version); older notebooks must remain readable.
5. Commit messages follow [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/), e.g. `fix: …`, `feat: …`, `perf: …`, `docs: …`; refer to an issue as `(Issue #28)`. New code comments are written in English (older code still has German comments); commit messages are in German.

6. The interface is available in German and English: write new texts with `t!("…")` (the German text is the key) and add the English translation in `src/i18n/`.
