During November 2024, Larcho stabilized Android build processes and improved notification handling across the breez-sdk-greenlight and breez-sdk-liquid repositories. He addressed build failures by refactoring version retrieval and dependency resolution to use the project root’s package.json, replacing fragile node_modules references. In breez-sdk-liquid, he enhanced Expo notification reliability by refining JSON payload parsing to extract notification types from both the body and userInfo fields. His work demonstrated depth in Android development, React Native dependency management, and Swift-based notification processing. These changes established consistent, maintainable build and notification patterns, reducing maintenance overhead and improving reliability for downstream mobile applications.

November 2024 achievements focused on stabilizing Android builds across Breez SDKs and fortifying notification handling, delivering concrete improvements with cross-repo impact. Key changes include aligning version retrieval and dependency resolution with the project root, and enhancing Expo notification payload parsing for reliability. Highlights by repository: - breez-sdk-greenlight: Fixed Android build configuration by switching version retrieval from the SDK's node_modules to the project root package.json, and updated the React Native dependencies repository URL to point to the project directory (removing fragile node_modules references). - breez-sdk-liquid: Corrected Android build versioning and dependency references to rely on the project's package.json for version information, and updated the RN dependencies URL to the correct location, improving accuracy of version resolution. - Expo Notifications: Added payload parsing enhancements to reliably extract notification type and payload by examining the body field or the full userInfo dictionary, increasing robustness of notification processing. Impact and value: Reduced Android build failures and dependency-resolution issues, improved notification reliability for downstream apps, and established reusable patterns for build config and payload parsing across Breez SDKs. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Android build configuration, React Native dependency management, JSON payload parsing, and cross-repo consistency across Breez SDK greenlight and liquid teams.
