March 2026 monthly summary: Across callstack-internal/Expensify-App and Expensify/react-native-onyx, delivered stability and performance improvements through targeted bug fixes, caching enhancements, and quality-focused upgrades. Highlights include UI correctness fixes (Receipt Preview aspect ratio), crash fixes (attachment sending), navigation and UX flow improvements (navigation after inviting a member, tooltip behavior), and expense entry UX stabilization (scrolling/highlighting). Implemented image caching with authentication for web assets, with cache invalidation on logout and quota exceedance, reducing network calls and preventing stale images. Performance improvements included memoization cleanup and a controlled optimization attempt in DelayedFreeze (startTransition), which was safely rolled back to preserve responsiveness. Upgraded core libraries (Onyx 3.0.46, FlashList 2.3.0) and expanded testing coverage (useCachedImageSource tests; broader test updates). Added Prettier formatting and documentation tweaks for consistency. Net effect: fewer crashes, faster UI, more robust cache behavior, and stronger regression protection, enabling scalable user adoption.

April 2025 monthly summary for Expensify/react-native-live-markdown concentrated on delivering a key user experience improvement and stabilizing the editing workflow for multiline markdown messages. Key deliverable: Cursor Position Fix for Multiline Markdown Deletion. The fix prevents incorrect cursor placement when deleting markdown characters across multiline messages by introducing a small delay in test typing simulations and refactoring input update logic to run asynchronously using InteractionManager. This ensures DOM updates and cursor positioning occur after interactions complete, eliminating visual glitches and improving editing reliability. Commit reference: e6c37521bfbe5ce827bce7811742d498675d5c01 with message "[WEB] Fix cursor moves several characters when deleting markdowns on multiline message (#656)". Impact: Smoother, more predictable markdown editing in live chat, reduced visual glitches, and more robust test coverage that mirrors real user behavior.
