July 2025 performance summary for navikt/rekrutteringsbistand-frontend: Delivered critical UI stability and analytics enhancements. Fixed SplitScreenLayout body overflow handling and reactivity to prevent unintended scrolling and ensure UI state updates when visPersonTreffId or visKandidatnr change. Improved job search analytics by sending the inklusive ring filter selections as an array instead of a comma-separated string, increasing data accuracy. These changes reduce UI glitches, improve user experience, and provide higher fidelity metrics for product decisions.
