Jun 1, 2025June 2025 performance summary for kyndryl-design-system/shidoka-applications: Delivered targeted UI enhancements and stability improvements across the design system, strengthening navigation, readability, and consistency while modernizing tooling. Key user-facing improvements include a configurable searchThreshold on HeaderLink to show the search input only when there are enough links, a min-width fix for dropdowns to guarantee full option visibility, expanded table rows with clearer UI and cleanup, and an updated copy button UX in the code view. Accessibility and visual layering were improved with tooltip z-index adjustments and updated tab styling and scrollable panels. Technical leadership was demonstrated through a series of design-token updates, style containment tweaks for tabs, and a suite of tooling upgrades (gridstack v12, Playwright, Foundation), which enhance stability, tests, and future maintenance. These changes drive business value by reducing UX friction, enabling faster navigation, and lowering risk in deployments.
