// Common breaking changes between major versions:

// v1.x → v2.x:
// - CustomerIO class → TrackClient + APIClient
// - Callbacks → Promises (async/await)
// - Region parameter added (defaults to US)
// - SendEmailRequest constructor changed

// v2.x → v3.x:
// - Import path may change
// - TypeScript types improved
// - Error object structure may change

// Always check the official changelog:
// https://github.com/customerio/customerio-node/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md

// lib/customerio-migration.ts
// Adapter that supports both old and new patterns during migration
