Contributions summary:Sverrir primarily focused on refactoring and restructuring the code base of the Jekyll pagination generator. They broke down the code into more manageable chunks, preparing it for gem creation, and added test specifications to validate the functionality of the pagination logic. Furthermore, they refactored pagination code to decouple it from Jekyll-specific logic and the site configuration, and also implemented backwards compatibility features. They updated the code base to handle collection support and added features such as pagination trails.
