Nov 1, 2025November 2025 focused on strengthening type safety in the core playlist timing subsystem and modernizing developer onboarding. In bbc/sofie-core, I delivered a type-safety enhancement by introducing a parent interface for PlaylistTimingNone to align with PlaylistTimingBase, preserving runtime behavior while improving compile-time guarantees. I also modernized the developer setup process by updating DEVELOPER.md to recommend using npx for Meteor installation, clarifying onboarding steps to reduce friction and ensure a consistent dev environment. No functional/runtime changes were introduced. Key commits captured: 8f729f48db580b6863278a94f7f77252fc843e40; df631e1d6d1f4a2ba837f60f6adee3d996b6578e.
