Month: 2025-08 — Focused delivery on external-system integration for untangle/ngfw_pkgs. Implemented Real-time External System Refresh Events on Vue Settings Save, enabling the Vue app to post network and system refresh events to the Ext external system. Defined event actions and a utility to post events to the parent window; triggers a refresh event after settings are saved to support real-time updates in the external application. Commit NGFW-15279: 95bf09a94ef4a4f607badf6ebdda8854c141dd05.

July 2025: Delivered an API versioning strategy to decouple frontend clients from backend changes and aligned JSON-RPC calls across Ext and Vue. Implemented per-client API versions (Ext v1, Vue v2) and migrated to backend API getAllInterfacesStatusV2, removing the version parameter from jsonrpc.js. This reduces coupling, simplifies future API evolution, and improves frontend stability.

April 2025 monthly summary for untangle/ngfw_pkgs. Delivered a centralized Console URL and deployment workflow improvement for the Vue-based console, unifying the base URL to /console/ in production and development, and updating DNS/build deployment to point at ngfw.untangle.com. Switched SCP to copy the entire dist directory for streamlined deployment and implemented a build script correction to ensure reliable execution. Addressed a syntax issue (missing semicolon) in the base URL configuration to reduce post-deploy failures.
