May 1, 2026

In May 2026, focused on stabilizing asset-pack versioning in decentraland/creator-hub and preventing stale publishes. Delivered a robust change-detection step that bumps versions when required and ensures the latest asset-packs are used during inspector publication. Refactored and renamed the effective-version step to detect-changes for clearer CI pipelines and easier maintenance. The change cascades asset-pack version bumps into the inspector publish workflow, eliminating duplicates and no-ops when asset-packs change without inspector source. These changes reduce release risk and improve consistency across packages.

April 2026: Focused on delivering a major UX feature for DCL Cast in Creator Hub and reinforcing build stability for rapid iteration. Delivered a feature-rich Showcase Modal to manage presentation tracks and participants with enhanced video controls and dynamic URL handling, enabling smoother live presentations and better collaboration. Rolled out UI/UX refinements and refactors to consolidate styles and components (e.g., PresentationPanel, ParticipantRow) for maintainability and accessibility. Implemented additional capabilities around sharing presentations via a new Share Presentation modal and associated API scaffolding. On the tooling side, updated asset-packs SDK dependencies and upgraded esbuild to 0.28.0 to improve build performance and Node.js compatibility. Also addressed linting and cleanup across the feature surfaces, reducing technical debt and surface area for regressions. Overall impact: faster delivery of presentation features, improved user experience for creators, and a more stable, scalable foundation for future enhancements.
