Aug 1, 2025August 2025 monthly summary for rcpch/national-paediatric-diabetes-audit focused on delivering data URL–driven UI improvements, strengthening permission controls, and enhancing data integrity and privacy. Key features and architecture changes include data URL adoption for the Patient UI (list, templates, CRUD) with navigation and PDU switcher compatibility, enabling leaner templates and faster client-side rendering. A PDUPermissionMixin was added to the patient list to enforce per-PDU access controls. Upload reliability was boosted by increasing timeouts and correcting the upload complete flow, reducing user-reported failures. Dashboard coverage was expanded with data URL variants and corresponding test updates to validate navigation and routes. Data quality and governance improvements covered patient age/measures corrections, patient report data URLs alignment, privacy masking (pinkify), and enhanced RCPCH data download permissions for appropriate roles, delivering more accurate reports and safer data handling.

Jul 1, 2025July 2025 monthly summary for rcpch/national-paediatric-diabetes-audit. This period focused on delivering features that improve data quality, security, navigation, and performance, while stabilizing tests and deployment processes. Key deliverables include Deep links across the app to streamline navigation; PDU cards UI to improve device overview; Audit period slug support to simplify data modeling and audits; dashboard load speed improvements for faster analytics; and a reset 2FA button to simplify security workflows. Major bugs fixed encompassed test resilience and data handling issues (failing tests, missing values, crashes with float values in integer columns), stability and IO deployment fixes, and test flakiness. These changes reduce release risk, improve audit accuracy, and enhance user experience. Technologies demonstrated include Django/Python data validation, test-driven development, security controls (2FA, access control), and improved observability (request logging improvements) and UI/UX enhancements.

Jan 1, 2025January 2025: Delivered robust audit-year handling (23-24) across login and CSV upload, and removed legacy audit-year logic to ensure correct propagation and data consistency. Implemented saving of DGC fields during CSV uploads with inline error rendering and added regression tests. Stabilized critical flows, including visit creation and cleaners, and fixed environment/config error handling. Enhanced UI feedback with an error icon on tabs, actual error counts, and numeric dividers; added an admin option to include patients in CSV submissions. Seeded initial audit periods to support data readiness, performed targeted code cleanups, and improved test reliability. Business value: higher data integrity, faster triage, reduced support tickets, and a more maintainable codebase.
