February 2025 performance highlights across three repositories: JetBrains/MPS-extensions, mbeddr/mbeddr.core, and IETS3/iets3.opensource. Key features delivered include enhancements to MPS Compare with cross-module resource and icon loading configurations and a plugin description for de.itemis.mps.compare; upgrade of Resources language to v3; and structural modernization through codebase modularization and build/config improvements. Major cleanup activities reduced maintenance overhead: removal of demo-related files, cleanup of IDE artifacts and empty models, and build script stabilization via rollback. Plugin migration consolidated the mps util compare plugin into de.itemis.mps.compare within mps-extensions, aligning with new plugin architecture. Reorganization of IETS3 modules enabled distribution readiness and maintainability. These changes collectively improve system stability, facilitate future feature work, and demonstrate proficiency in plugin development, language migrations, and large-scale refactoring.

January 2025 performance highlights for IETS3 development. Key features delivered include the Variability Management Language Interface, introducing an interface to mark variability points, new language models, and build configuration updates to support variability points, laying groundwork for centralized variability management. Major bugs fixed include the Variation Point Handling Refactor and Presence Condition Method, enabling correct handling when IVariationPoint is extended and returning the presence condition via Optional, thereby improving code correctness and stability. An additional stability improvement was the Libraries.xml Modification Revert to restore the file to its pre-change state. In parallel, the compare language and related solutions were migrated from embeddr to mps-extension with module/namespace updates and project restructuring to improve maintainability. Overall impact: stronger configurability and stability for product variants, a cleaner, more maintainable multi-repo architecture, and improved readiness for future variability-driven features. Technologies/skills demonstrated include language design and modeling for variability points, API design with Optional, refactoring, multi-repo module migrations, and build configuration management.
