Contributions summary:Moritz primarily focused on enhancing the type safety and structure of the Redux-Little-Router library. Their contributions included strongly typing action types, removing unexported actions, adding missing ones, and updating code to use object literals. Furthermore, they addressed issues with type definitions, specifically correcting the use of `{}` and replacing it with `any` where appropriate. These changes contribute to a more robust and maintainable codebase.
