PROFILE
Sarah Laplante
Worked on the hectorqin/outline-client repository, delivering twelve features and addressing two bugs over six months to enhance cross-platform usability, deployment reliability, and security. Focused on build automation, CI/CD, and cloud infrastructure, the work included ARM64 client support for Linux and Windows, unified TAP driver installation, and DigitalOcean provisioning improvements. Leveraged technologies such as Swift, JavaScript, and Docker to streamline macOS and iOS build processes, consolidate app entitlements, and modernize deployment pipelines. Emphasized maintainability by updating documentation, automating provisioning, and aligning configuration across platforms, resulting in improved stability, reduced manual intervention, and a more resilient, user-friendly client experience.

May 1, 2026May 2026 highlights: Delivered two major enhancements to improve cloud provisioning reliability and mobile CI stability for the outline-client project. Key outcomes include: 1) DigitalOcean droplet provisioning enhancement with the agent installed at creation, removing the need for a manual install script and restoring reliable web-console access; 2) iOS build/runtime compatibility updates, upgrading the CI runner to macos-15, aligning iOS simulator runtimes, and synchronizing deployment targets with Xcode for iOS 18 readiness; 3) Deployment-target alignment between config.xml and Xcode 15.5 to ensure accurate minimum version reporting in builds. Overall, these changes reduce provisioning time, eliminate console-related failures, and improve mobile CI reliability across environments.
