Nov 1, 2025November 2025 monthly summary: Strengthened CI stability, delivered core features for modern publishing workflows, and advanced UI capabilities. Highlights include enrollment re-enrollment on the enrollment page, a Playwright test harness enabling end-to-end quality checks, data model and access control for the modern publishing system, and user-facing UI improvements for course instance publishing and related publishing state workflows. Also advanced TanStack Table usage with virtualization and grouped columns for scalable data presentation and migrated several listings to JSX/Preact for consistency and performance. These efforts collectively improve publishing reliability, instructor/student workflows, UI responsiveness, and pave the way for future publishing enhancements.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025 monthly summary focusing on key accomplishments, major bugs fixed, and business value. Highlights include lint rule enablement across the codebase for better quality, self-enrollment UX improvements, a generic table component refactor for reuse, accessibility and testing enhancements, and security/architecture improvements through modern DB authorization and model-based patterns. Notable bug fixes include reverting unintended blank-value support on math elements, safe-type enforcement in model functions, and correct assessment display involving blank-value. Business value: higher maintainability, cleaner UI, improved self-enrollment experience, better auditability, and a leaner stack after removing the SQL plugin.
