Monthly summary for 2025-07 focusing on Leaflet/Leaflet. Key features delivered: - Removed obsolete Internet Explorer 11 drag workaround in Draggable.js. The change simplifies drag behavior by removing a conditional path that ignored events when the draggable element was disabled, addressing ticket #3666. Commit: 163c71bfd289517924af6844d6c1f735cb7b8bee. Major bugs fixed: - Fixed legacy IE11 drag handling by removing the outdated workaround, reducing code complexity and potential edge-case regressions associated with the IE-specific path (ticket #3666). Overall impact and accomplishments: - Codebase simplification and maintainability improvement for Leaflet's draggable interactions, reducing technical debt and potential future bug surface. Aligns the project with modern browser behavior and simplifies future refactors. - Minor performance and readability gains from eliminating unnecessary conditional checks. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - JavaScript, front-end drag interaction logic (Draggable.js), code refactoring, and Git-based change history. - Cross-browser considerations and adherence to ticketing/process (ticket #3666).
