Over two months, contributed to penpot/penpot by delivering four features and resolving two bugs focused on UI modernization, performance, and reliability. Worked extensively with Clojure, ClojureScript, and React to migrate legacy UI components to modern syntax, reducing prop conversion overhead and improving maintainability. Enhanced the Assets Panel with safer bulk deletion and undo capabilities, and improved the Workspace Actions history panel with author and timestamp details for better traceability. Addressed critical bugs in plugin parsing and cross-library component pasting, ensuring data integrity and smoother user workflows. Emphasized unit testing, code refactoring, and engineering hygiene throughout the development process.
May 2026 — Focused on UI modernization and incremental migration to modern Clojure syntax across the penpot/penpot product, delivering performance improvements and easier long-term maintenance. Completed large-scale, safe migrations of UI components and rendering paths to the *-suffixed syntax, reducing per-render JS-to-Clojure prop conversions and enabling more deterministic prop handling. Enhanced Workspace Actions history panel with author information, relative timestamps, and short identifiers to significantly improve traceability and user experience. Reduced legacy dependencies (e.g., app.util.object) and aligned call sites, enabling smoother future migrations and lower risk of regressions. Overall, these efforts deliver faster UI interactions, clearer auditability, and a stronger foundation for ongoing modernization.

April 2026 — Delivered high-impact features and stability improvements for penpot/penpot. Key features: Delete Asset Group in the Assets Panel with confirmation and undo across components/colors/typographies; Modernized Navigation-Bullets component for better performance while preserving behavior. Major bugs fixed: plugin parser parse-point now returns a gpt/point record (with added unit tests) to satisfy shape interaction schemas, and paste of variant-bearing components from shared libraries no longer crashes due to corrected component-file referencing. Overall impact: safer bulk asset operations, more reliable cross-file library interactions, and a cleaner, modernized UI; enhanced performance and maintainability. Technologies/skills demonstrated: ClojureScript/CLJC patterns, undo/transaction semantics, i18n localization, unit testing, and cross-team code extraction and refactoring.
