June 2025 monthly summary for CruGlobal/mpdx-react: Delivered UI and data integrity improvements focusing on user feedback during loading states and locale-aware pledge handling. Implemented a loading indicator visibility fix with a CSS refactor and updated tests, and added locale-aware currency input with two decimal places, helper utilities for formatting/normalizing currency strings, and locale-sensitive parsing via Intl.NumberFormat. Input is treated as string until submission to preserve accuracy across locales. These changes enhance user experience, reduce data-entry errors, and prepare the codebase for broader internationalization.
