Over five months, contributed to kartverket.dev by delivering 22 features and resolving 8 bugs, focusing on catalog management, security governance, and data integration. Developed and enhanced UI components using React and TypeScript, integrating APIs such as GitHub and Regelrett to streamline catalog creation, security champion management, and multi-source data access. Improved system reliability and user experience through robust validation, accessibility updates, and dynamic form handling. Strengthened backend connectivity with Node.js, optimized configuration management, and maintained code quality with dependency updates and documentation. The work emphasized maintainable architecture, cross-team collaboration, and iterative enhancements to support governance and developer workflows.
February 2026: Delivered end-to-end Regelrett integration on kartverket.dev, enabling fetch-by-name of forms, team-page display with a toggle, and backend connectivity updates via corrected service URL configuration. Hardened frontend security by removing development-only Microsoft auth variables. Simplified UI/UX for function and catalog pages by reducing graph depth to two layers, removing unnecessary links, and pruning extraneous data from display graphs. These changes improve form discovery and team collaboration, reduce security risk, and enhance performance and maintainability.
