Andrew Zheng contributed to the narmi/design_system repository by building and modernizing core UI components, focusing on scalable design and developer experience. He developed a custom Context Menu system with native-like triggers and integrated it into the design system, while also implementing dynamic sizing for the Autocomplete modal to improve usability. Andrew migrated major components from JavaScript to TypeScript, consolidated exports, and upgraded Storybook to streamline documentation and onboarding. He enhanced component reusability by introducing flexible alert padding and a shared portal utility for overlays, using React, TypeScript, and CSS. His work addressed maintainability, type safety, and consistent rendering across the system.

January 2025 focused UX polish and foundational modernization for narmi/design_system, delivering a key usability enhancement and a broad system upgrade to enable scalable component growth. The Autocomplete modal now auto-resizes to its content with a controlled maximum height, reducing layout jitter in dense forms. Core design-system modernization was completed via a TypeScript migration across core components, export consolidation, and a Storybook upgrade to v8, with PropTypes replaced by TS types and accompanying docs/addons improvements. Broader TypeScript refactors were applied to major components (ContentCard, LoadingSkeleton, RadioButtons, Checkbox, Tabs) to improve type safety and developer experience. Storybook configuration and docs were enhanced (argTypesRegex removal, addition/removal of tag badges, and related tweaks) to streamline development and onboarding. Overall, these changes reduce runtime errors, improve maintainability, and establish a solid foundation for scalable feature delivery.

December 2024 was focused on delivering a robust Context Menu System and advancing TypeScript migration to strengthen the design system and developer experience. Key outcomes include a first-class Context Menu component with right-click and keyboard triggers, designed to align with native behavior and integrated into the design system with updated docs and export/import fixes; a set of TypeScript migrations and tooling improvements across core components (including JSON imports) and Storybook configuration; and a set of bug fixes that ensure stable exports and correct imports, plus improved lifecycle behavior (close on native context trigger).
