October 2025 focused on unifying and hardening the SelectionList-driven UI across margelo/expensify-app-fork and callstack-internal Expensify-App. Key features delivered include a broad migration of the SelectionList component across IOURequest steps, language/theme settings, notifications, and various settings pages, plus header extraction and UI labeling improvements (notably the “Choose a workspace” label). The work also introduced translations for new UI strings and improved localization readiness. Major bugs fixed include stabilization of label usage (restoring and regressing Workspaces labels as needed), robust handling of ONYX data (canBeMissing) and custom date rendering, and multiple lint/type fixes with unit-test reruns. Additional code health improvements included removing legacy splitPayer functionality and consolidating SelectionList usage across additional pages. Overall impact: improved UI consistency, maintainability, localization readiness, and reliability, enabling faster, safer UI changes with fewer regressions. Technologies/skills demonstrated: React/TypeScript, ONYX state handling, component design and refactors, internationalization/localization, linting/CI hygiene, and unit testing.
