Sep 1, 2025Month: 2025-09 – Delivered stability and tooling improvements in sumup-oss/circuit-ui. Signaled production readiness for the Timestamp component via Storybook metadata (no code changes) and fixed ProgressBar looping when loop=false. Upgraded ESLint configuration with an 'all' rule set and tuned rule severities to support migration to newer Circuit UI versions. These changes reduce runtime surprises, improve code quality, and accelerate future adoption.
