Feb 1, 2025February 2025 highlights: Delivered a new File Upload API and refactored the survey admin flow to use a dedicated file upload service, with related configuration updates. Hardened REST API for data integrity and robustness, including validation of group IDs on question creation, ensured persistence of new answer options, and robust transformation for 'aid' values. These changes reduce data invalid states, improve editor workflows, and stabilize API behavior, enabling safer data management and scalable deployment. Demonstrated skills include REST API design, service-oriented refactor, data validation, and editor compatibility with v0.2.9.
