+### Added
+- **Flexible Configurations:** Added an optional `options` argument to both `createDevConfig` and `createProdConfig`.
+- Users can now override default `devServer` settings or Webpack production optimizations without losing the base functionality.
+- Integrated `webpack-merge` into `createDevConfig` for safer property merging.
+
+### Fixed
+- Updated internal documentation and clarified version history in `CHANGELOG.md`.

-- Webpack is responsible for:
-  - module resolution
-  - aliases (`resolve.alias`)
-  - asset handling
-
-- Loaders and plugins:
-  - do not define aliases
-  - do not depend on UI kits
-  - do not assume project structure

-- `pug-plugin` is used only to compile templates  
-  Asset paths are resolved by webpack.

+- **Webpack is responsible for**: module resolution, aliases (`resolve.alias`), and asset handling.
+- **Flexibility:** Since v1.2.1, you can override any part of the dev or prod configuration using an optional `options` argument.
+- **Stability:** `pug-plugin` is used to compile templates, and asset paths are resolved by webpack.
+- **Template-driven**: Webpack JS entry is intentionally disabled. Builds are driven by template entries in `src/views/pages`.
+  - **Sensible Defaults**: No aggressive production optimizations (like `splitChunks`) are enabled by default to prevent asset resolution issues in templates.

 ## Features
 
-- Pug templates support
-- JavaScript / TypeScript
-- SCSS / Less
-- Environment-aware configuration
-- No hardcoded aliases
-- Production-safe defaults
+- **Pug templates support** with auto-discovery.
+- **JavaScript / TypeScript** integration.
+- **SCSS / Less** styling support.
+- **Recursive File Watching**: Dev server watches all changes in src/**/*.
+- **SPA-friendly Dev Server**: Integrated historyApiFallback (redirects to 404.html).
+- **Customizable**: Easily override devServer or optimization settings.

+if (mode === 'development') {
+  return createDevConfig(baseConfig, {

+## API Reference
+
+`createDevConfig(baseConfig, options?)`
+
+- `baseConfig`: The configuration returned by createBaseConfig.
+- `options`: (Optional) webpack-dev-server configuration object.
+- **Default behavior**: Watches `src/**/*`, uses port `8080`, and rewrites 404s to `/404.html`.
+
+`createProdConfig(baseConfig, options?)`
+
+- `baseConfig`: The configuration returned by createBaseConfig.
+- `options`: (Optional) Webpack configuration object for production overrides.
+- **Default behavior**: Enables source maps, minification, and disables `splitChunks` for template compatibility.
