Aug 1, 2025August 2025: Executed a major Author Management UI migration to Material React Table in fez-frontend, delivering a searchable AuthorsList, refined IDs, and expanded panel logic, with significant UI/UX improvements and full test coverage. Fixed core data integrity issues in author affiliations by removing obsolete organization functionality, stabilizing pagination/edit flows, preventing duplicate affiliations, and ensuring consistent state (aut_id reset when UQ ID is cleared). These changes reduced defect risk, simplified maintenance, and improved author workflows, supported by updated Jest tests and coverage.
