Worked on the microsoft/ai-dev-gallery repository to modernize dependency management and support the latest Semantic Kernel features. Focused on upgrading the Microsoft.SemanticKernel.Connectors.InMemory package from version 1.37.0-preview to 1.38.0-preview, this effort centralized dependency updates within the Directory.Packages.props file using XML. The approach reduced version drift and streamlined maintenance for demonstration and sample workflows that rely on in-memory connectors. Leveraging skills in package management and XML, the work improved reliability and alignment with upstream changes. No bug fixes were recorded during this period, with the primary contribution centered on enhancing the project’s dependency infrastructure for future development.
