Jan 1, 2025January 2025: DFA portal readiness and reliability improvements for the DFA 3.1 release. Implemented a planned outage banner and refactored production HTML to support the 3.1 release, and completed landing page enhancements to improve content, spacing, layout, and the apply flow. Fixed critical issues including broken index*.html files and a redirect that previously routed DFA apply to the wrong flow. These changes improve user experience during maintenance, reduce support friction, and position the portal for the DFA 3.1 rollout. Technologies demonstrated: HTML/CSS refactor, static site maintenance, URL routing, and deployment discipline.
