Worked on enhancing the pagination component in the toptal/picasso repository by making the totalPages property optional for the compact variant and introducing a nextDisabled prop to control the Next button’s state. This approach, implemented using React, TypeScript, and CSS, improved the component’s flexibility and reliability, especially in dashboard scenarios where the total count of items may be unknown. The changes reduced edge-case rendering and simplified integration for developers consuming the API. By focusing on component development and UI/UX, the work delivered more predictable behavior and better ergonomics for compact views, supporting more dynamic and variable data environments.
