Jul 1, 2025July 2025 — grist-core: This month prioritized keyboard navigation, accessibility, and data-entry UX, delivering business-value improvements and more stable tests. Key features delivered include RegionFocusSwitcher core enhancements with improved focus UX enabling reliable region-based keyboard navigation, classic keyboard navigation outside documents, and differentiation of global vs focused-only commands to reduce confusion; a bottom 'New Record' button added to grid and detail views to streamline data entry; and high-contrast UI improvements including 'text buttons' in high-contrast theme. Major bugs fixed include: focused element highlighting restricted to non-document views; traps for focus inside panels; crash on topAppModel reload; DocListMenu padding/scroll glitches; non-focusable items inside a region fixed; ESC key behavior adjusted by input method; and panel content focusability corrected. Overall impact: improved accessibility, faster navigation for power users, more robust stability in tests and region navigation flows, and a cleaner, more consistent UI. Technologies/skills demonstrated: accessibility and keyboard navigation architecture (RegionFocusSwitcher), state-driven refactor, test stability improvements, UI/UX polish, and performance-conscious refactors; plus improved user feedback for long submissions and theme-consistent focus rings.
