Worked on the ghostty-org/ghostty repository to enhance terminal mouse click handling, enabling support for both absolute and relative coordinates within prompt areas for improved user interaction. Applied Zig programming skills to implement saturated arithmetic, preventing overflow in click position calculations and increasing the reliability of event handling. Addressed a major bug by refining the testing framework, normalizing enum field naming, and reinforcing test coverage to catch edge-case failures. Focused on system programming and terminal development, the work resulted in a smoother user experience and a more resilient codebase, with all changes reviewed and validated through a pull request-driven workflow.
