Aug 1, 2025Month: 2025-08 (repository: input-output-hk/lace). Delivered a new transaction metadata preview before signing, introducing a reusable TxDetailsAuxiliaryData component to render and copy auxiliary data (including metadata) within the transaction preview prior to finalization. This enhancement improves pre-signing validation, reduces metadata discrepancies after signing, and increases user trust and transparency in the signing flow.

Jan 1, 2025January 2025: Lace delivered key UX and stability improvements that directly enhance wallet reliability and Cardano network interactions. Implemented Blockfrost-based address discovery and input resolution, introducing BlockfrostAddressDiscovery and BlockfrostInputResolver, with updated wallet configuration to enable these features, improving address management and transaction processing. Updated Cardano SDK packages (cardano-services-client, ogmios, projection, util-dev, wallet, web-extension) to latest versions and stabilized a critical smoke test by adding a wait condition for transaction details description, reducing flakiness. Also optimized user experience by adjusting wallet polling to one-minute intervals and shortening inactivity timeout to two minutes for quicker state transitions. These changes collectively improve reliability, responsiveness, and developer experience while supporting a more robust production release.
