Jul 1, 2025July 2025 — Delivered key front-end UI standardization and back-end journey simplifications across govuk-one-login/ipv-core-front and govuk-one-login/ipv-core-back. Front-end feature: Radio Button Layout Standardization standardized radio button layouts across pages by removing inline styling and stacking vertically for consistency and accessibility. Commit: 2258b2332f65c0732226e406282ae23ba590d33d (PYIC-8418). Back-end/journey bug fixes: Removed unused lastChoice context across journey flows in ipv-core-back (commit fc03465df89b0ca4c6e4c81d4d2bc580ce12a07e) and cleanup: Remove leftover lastChoice references in ipv-core-front (commit 4c9d43d12cc722f3f0c7cfe4b2d2c22a74c49691). Impact: Reduced technical debt, simpler test scenarios, more reliable journeys, and improved UI consistency and accessibility. Tech/skills: Front-end UI refactor, test/snapshot maintenance, and state-machine cleanup across both repos.
