 **Key Learnings:**
 
+- **CRITICAL:** Git submodules should be in `lib/` NOT `vendor/` to avoid Composer conflicts
+- Composer manages `vendor/` directory - don't put submodules there
+- Use relative submodule URL (`../repo.git`) for Gitea CI/CD compatibility
+- Use version constraint `^0.2` instead of `@dev` for stability
 - Git submodules require `submodules: recursive` in checkout action
-- Composer path repository with `symlink: false` works with submodules
+- Composer creates symlink from `vendor/` to `lib/` automatically
-- `.gitignore` patterns: Use `/vendor/*` then `!/vendor/magdev/` to allow specific paths
-- When adding submodules to ignored paths, use `git submodule add -f` to force
