Amir Burbea modernized Angular directives in the truenas/webui repository, focusing on aligning the codebase with Angular 20.x standards. He refactored legacy patterns by replacing deprecated UntilDestroy with takeUntilDestroyed from @angular/core/rxjs-interop and introduced DestroyRef to improve directive lifecycle management. Amir updated HasAccessDirective to use inputBinding for inputs and adjusted AnimateOutDirective to fit the new architecture. Working primarily with TypeScript, Angular, and RxJS, he addressed technical debt and improved maintainability. This work enhanced the project’s readiness for future upgrades and streamlined onboarding for new features, demonstrating a thoughtful approach to long-term codebase health and scalability.
