February 2025 — Fluent UI React Native (LinkV1): Delivered accessibility-focused updates and stability improvements for the Link component, with cross-platform test coverage and snapshot maintenance. Implemented removal of Link text from the accessibility tree and added an accessibilityLabel to ensure correct naming for assistive tech, with macOS test page support and updated snapshots. Resolved a robustness edge-case by ensuring a11yLabel is derived only from string children, reducing risk of errors in label generation across platforms. These changes enhance accessibility compliance, reduce mislabeling risks, and improve cross-platform developer confidence.
