December 2024 – ppy/osu: Focused on improving tooltips and localization for extended game modes and elevating code quality. Implemented 4K/7K variants tooltip support in user profile tooltips with localized strings, centralized display logic, and improved rank tooltip handling for these modes. Fixed Mania tooltip alignment to center the text at the top and ensured consistent tooltip behavior. Refactored code to improve quality: replaced a switch expression with a LocalisableDescription attribute and used Count-based checks instead of Any. These changes enhance accessibility for multi-mode players, provide a scalable localization-ready foundation, and reduce UX inconsistencies, delivering measurable business value through improved user experience and maintainability.
