I downloaded the mezzio latest version. I register modules using below the command. After that the creation i could not see the module name in my module.config.php. Is this normal ? Do i have to do it by mannually ?

`composer mezzio mezzio:module:register Authentication`

Expected behavior

config/modules.config.php

```auto
<?php
return [
    'Authentication',
];

```

Correct, because Mezzio is not laminas-mvc and you can therefore not expect the same behaviour or the same file structure.  
The handling of modules is different, see:
