Nov 1, 2025November 2025: Concentrated on data export accuracy and localization support in ESP32 firmware. Resolved a critical CSV export issue affecting German locale by making numeric formatting language-aware, ensuring German decimal separators are correctly represented in CSV exports. Implemented a Language parameter for formatEnergy and formatPrice to support locale-specific formatting, improving data integrity for multi-language users and reducing misinterpretation in German Excel.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025 monthly summary for the esp32-firmware project focused on Charge Tracker improvements, reliability, and performance. Delivered a broad set of UX enhancements, backend sending flows, and UI/API refinements that drive business value through faster, more reliable charge-log handling and better user experience. Key technical strides include migration toward modern UI patterns (preact/hooks), richer translations, and robust async/task management, plus backend improvements for sending configurations and logs. Highlights by area: - User experience and UI: Charge Tracker UI/UX enhancements (language dropdown, editable titles, and repositioned send email component) with smarter display-name handling when display/device match; improved spinner spacing and translation updates. - Data sending and config flows: Added per-user last-sent tracking for charge logs; added function to send specific config and UI to send charge logs; included display name in charge log sends; UI supports multipart/form-data uploads for reliability. - Performance and reliability: Start PDF generation in the HTTP thread; added charge log generation state; refactored charge log sending for reliability; removed upload retries and addressed potential deadlocks; increased async HTTP timeout and ensured code runs in the main asyncio task. - API/UI modernization: Web/Charge Tracker API interactions updated; migrated to preact/hooks; stopped using useEffect; translations handling modernized; remote_access and translations enhancements for better localization and remote operations. - Security, stability, and maintenance: Removed CSV generation leftovers and unnecessary code; fixed translation and UI text issues; added NTP warning in remote access flow; hardened various edge cases (month-end log naming ISO format, etc.). Overall impact: These changes deliver measurable business value through more reliable charge-log workflows, clearer user notifications, faster log transmission, and a more maintainable codebase that supports scalable, localized UI changes. Technologies/skills demonstrated: UI/UX design, API integration, multipart/form-data handling, asynchronous task management, preact/hooks migration, translation/localization, and robust bug-fix discipline.
