December 2024 — Key features delivered and bug fixes for lockbook/lockbook: - SVG Editor: Implemented drag-to-activate color swatches in the SVG editor toolbar, enabling intuitive color selection; alignment with overall editor UX improvements. This feature is accompanied by an iOS SDK version update integrated via the autorun script to support the new interaction workflow. (Commit: 502c95ec37051f3dc228c84ce85f5d1b9f2b122b) - Renderer stability: Fixed canvas/renderer flicker by tightening delete_changed to trigger only when an actual element is removed from the mesh cache, reducing unnecessary state updates. (Commit: 9f2700de914e36b1b0f46d2c132238584f07913d) Overall impact and accomplishments: The month delivered a smoother, more reliable editor experience with reduced visual flicker and more predictable color selection interactions. These changes improve designer productivity and reduce debugging effort in canvas rendering paths. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Canvas rendering pipeline, mesh cache management, drag-based UI interactions, cross-platform tooling integration (iOS SDK), and commit-driven incremental delivery for feature and bug fix work.
