Malak Gdaea updated the curriculum in the freeCodeCamp/freeCodeCamp repository by refining the title of a core challenge, shifting it from "Build a Discount Calculator" to "Build an Apply Discount Function" to clarify the learning objective and improve discoverability. Focusing on curriculum development, Malak emphasized content accuracy, maintainability, and traceability throughout the process. The work involved editing Markdown files and adhering to conventional commit standards to ensure clear version history. Although no bugs were addressed during this period, the targeted feature update enhanced learner guidance and analytics readiness, demonstrating careful alignment between curriculum objectives and technical implementation requirements.
