Monthly work summary for 2025-01: Focused on stabilizing UI interaction patterns in the Jokul repository. Delivered a targeted bug fix for ExpandablePanel to ensure onOpenChange triggers only for uncontrolled usage, reducing unexpected callbacks and improving consistency for both controlled and uncontrolled modes. The change eliminates an unnecessary useEffect and clarifies the internal toggle path by calling onOpenChange within setUncontrolledOpen when the panel's open state toggles internally. This enhances UX reliability and downstream consumer expectations. Key commit included: cf8628f531693dc8f414b84c1ea3e82ff465426a in fremtind/jokul.
