Monthly summary for 2026-03 focusing on key achievements and impact for SJSU-CS-systems-group/DDD. The main deliverable this month was a library dependency modernization to improve JSON processing reliability and stability across core utilities. Upgraded Jackson to 2.14.2 and Guava to 33.2.1-android in BundleClient/app/build.gradle (commit 470e5c6209c7ee18583655940bfc4712d72fa7ec). This reduces risk of parsing errors, improves performance, and aligns dependencies with current support baselines. No other features or bug fixes documented for this period; changes validated through local tests and CI with no regressions. Business value includes more robust data handling, faster JSON operations, and easier future maintenance.
