March 2026 focused on delivering business-value improvements to the Kaizen Design System, tightening stability, and preparing for future releases through API hygiene, accessibility improvements, and tooling upgrades. Deliverables spanned breaking changes in the Kaizen Components Library, internal maintenance, and targeted UI fixes across components to improve consistency on mobile and ensure accessible, robust interactions. Key actions consolidated across the month include API simplification and accessibility refactor for the Kaizen Components Library (removing deprecated props, introducing actionsSlot, and providing a codemod for migration), significant internal tooling and maintenance improvements (bundle tooling upgrade to v4, CSS specificity improvements, and TimeField prop cleanup), and UI/UX fixes that stabilize layouts and interactions on various viewports (mobile content margins, modal scroll lock remediation, and MenuTrigger overflow handling).
