Over four months, contributed to the LifeSG/react-design-system repository by building and enhancing accessible, reusable UI components using React, TypeScript, and CSS. Focused on accessibility, the work included keyboard navigation and ARIA improvements for calendar components, semantic HTML updates for assistive technology support, and responsive UI/UX enhancements for dropdowns and time pickers. Developed features such as OTP input with external control and multi-select popover overlays, supported by comprehensive unit testing. Each feature addressed usability, layout stability, and maintainability, resulting in more inclusive, robust interfaces and smoother user flows across authentication, booking, and general component interactions within the design system.
March 2026: Delivered core UI component enhancements in LifeSG/react-design-system with a focus on OTP flows and multi-select UX. Implemented OTP Input Enhancements with ref exposure, external-control props, and OTP-only mode, backed by unit tests for cooldown behavior and prop-driven rendering. Enhanced Popover with a nested overlay for multi-select and resolved a dismissal issue when a sibling portal is focused, improving UX consistency. Updated API documentation via props table alignment to support maintainability. Business impact: smoother OTP-based authentication, fewer UI glitches, and faster, safer feature rollouts. Technologies demonstrated: React component design patterns (refs and props APIs), comprehensive unit testing, nested overlay UX, and stability fixes.
