June 2025 performance for earthhistoryviz/tsconline focused on reliability, UX polish, and real-time capabilities. Key frontend improvements delivered: UI layout refinements, enhanced hyperlinks behavior with registration gating, and new UI components for presentations and instructions. Charting improvements included a loading bar, a dedicated module for chart generation, and UI feedback enhancements. Backend/workflow enhancements covered workshop form handling, file upload endpoints for presentations and instructions, and admin workflow refactors with a form hook and component splits. Real-time and data delivery upgrades included migrating to WebSocket for real-time communications and enabling backend-to-frontend updates while simplifying data flow by removing sockets from chart generation. Quality and stability efforts encompassed expanded test coverage, timeout warning fixes, translations corrections, and multiple bug fixes (quote handling, version/register behavior, reglink/admin access) plus PR hygiene and documentation improvements. Additional maintainability gains included codebase cleanup and loading support for individual datapacks. Overall impact: smoother user experience, more reliable data handling, faster admin operations, and lower maintenance cost across the live data platform.
