Aug 1, 2025August 2025 (digbmc/germantown-y) delivered four core features with stabilization work focused on reliability, navigation, and branding. Security and maintainability improvements were achieved by migrating image handling to an ID-based system and removing legacy icon helpers, reducing rendering errors and simplifying asset management.

Implemented a visual refresh for map markers with new pushpin SVG icons and color-coded layers aligned to the site palette. Enhanced Stories browsing with default date-based sorting, pagination, previous/next navigation, and file-type icons to improve content discoverability. Overall impact: improved user experience, stronger branding consistency, and reduced technical debt, while laying groundwork for upcoming content.
