Worked on the duckduckgo/apple-browsers repository, focusing on stability and reliability improvements for content blocking and onboarding flows. Addressed a crash in content blocker allowlist processing by refactoring how allowlist data is accessed and mapped to tracker names, using Swift and iOS development skills to ensure robust handling and prevent unexpected termination. When a quick fix introduced instability, changes were reverted to maintain application reliability. Additionally, stabilized the New Tab Page onboarding experience by refining trigger logic and dialog state management, ensuring consistent user experiences across per-tab webviews. Emphasized targeted bug fixes, version control discipline, and maintainable code throughout the process.
