March 2026: Delivered a feature-rich datepicker with accessibility and range selection improvements, and optimized the repository build process. Datepicker leverages Temporal API for date handling, Popover API for dropdown behavior, and CSS anchor positioning for robust layout. Enhancements include improved keyboard navigation, comprehensive tests, and documentation. Addressed range selection edge cases and ongoing code quality improvements. Build systems were optimized (Lerna) to reduce memory usage and increase concurrency, yielding faster, more resource-efficient CI/builds.
