For full changelog see: v4.5.0...v4.5.1

Also:
As you may find out, there are two new props already present in the README that are marked as ☣️ experimental ☣️.
They are related to new feature(s): custom step marker, which is still under some constructions, but it's code is already on the main branch.
Feel free to use it, play with it, experiment with it, but please remember it's still to be polished.
Also, before officially released, this feature could definitely use some issue reports or feedback.

Have a nice day!
