February 2026 (2026-02) – lvgl/lvgl. This month focused on expanding image format support by delivering AL88 color format image transformation and stabilizing the feature with a targeted fix. Business value: broader image processing capabilities across formats, reduced need for manual conversions, and improved consistency in image rendering pipelines across devices. Technical accomplishments: implemented AL88 transform support including blending and transforming AL88 format images, and ensured compatibility with existing image formats to broaden image processing capabilities. A focused fix was merged to address transform support for AL88 color format images (commit 61aa7a2bd57401d161f4699c54aba046a03ab1cf; #9627). These changes enhance the library's versatility for graphics-heavy applications and set the stage for future cross-format improvements. Skills demonstrated: C/C++, image processing, color format handling, code maintenance, and targeted debugging.

In January 2026, lvgl/lvgl focused on correctness and stability in image rendering by fixing the alpha channel handling when blending L8 images to ARGB8888.
