April 2025: Implemented the Application Upgrade Pre-Upgrade Hook in yunohost to run custom actions before upgrades by invoking a hook callback within the app_upgrade flow. This enables pre-upgrade validation, migration tasks, and automation steps, improving upgrade reliability and extensibility. No major bugs fixed this month. Overall impact: safer upgrade workflow, reduced manual toil, and better automation readiness for enterprise deployments. Technologies/skills demonstrated: hook/callback integration, upgrade workflow modification, Git-based change management, clear commit messaging.
