April 2026 – islet-project/islet monthly summary focusing on build stability and compatibility improvements. No new user-facing features in this period; primary effort was a targeted dependency cleanup to simplify the build pipeline. The SWTPM dependency was removed by updating the tf-a-rss and optee-build submodules to align with the current build environment, reducing cross-dependency fragility and CI risk.
