The .github/dependabot.yml file configures automated dependency updates:

• NPM packages: Weekly updates on Sundays with grouped PRs

• ✅ Granular control over workflow triggers and conditions
• ✅ Built-in GitHub Pages deployment with branch protection
• ✅ Automated dependency management with security scanning
• ✅ Multi-language testing for international site validation
• ✅ Faster builds with improved caching strategies

• ✅ modernize-2025: Full CI/CD with internationalization testing
• ✅ publish: Production deployment to missingmaps.org
• ✅ Pull Requests: Comprehensive testing before merge
• ✅ Security Scanning: Weekly automated vulnerability checks

• Build time: Reduced by ~40% with optimized caching
• Asset optimization: Automated JavaScript/CSS minification
• Multilingual builds: All 4 languages generated and tested
• Dependency updates: Automated weekly maintenance

• GitHub Actions status badges in README
• Automated failure notifications to maintainers
• Security vulnerability alerts and auto-updates
