March 2025 focused on delivering business value through end-to-end rental flow enhancements, UI/UX improvements, and code quality hardening for the borroo product. Key outcomes include a global modal for rental requests, the first calendar in object details, and stabilized frontend-backend interactions. Access-control safeguards (redirects and authentication checks) reduced risk of unauthorized actions and improved navigation. Performance- and UX-oriented improvements (skeleton loading, tooltips, refined footer/navbar) enhanced perceived responsiveness. Ongoing code quality and security fixes reduced technical debt and improved maintainability across the codebase.
