February 2025: Delivered the Lua API Documentation Modernization and Tooling Migration for beyond-all-reason/spring. Migrated doc generation from LDoc to Lua Language Server-compatible annotations, standardized documentation style, and clarified API entries including map options, sound devices, SendMessageToSpectators, and SetUnitHealth. Improved navigation by linking CI/CD-generated docs to source code and added cross-references to C++ sources. Executed targeted documentation fixes to improve accuracy and readability, including mod/map option docs and GetSoundDevices, plus adopting the /*** doc-comment format. This work reduces maintenance overhead, accelerates onboarding, and enhances API discoverability and reliability.

November 2024: Delivered two targeted updates that enhance developer productivity and game UI reliability. Lua Language Server Type Inference Enhancements improves type checking and code completion for mod scripts by recognizing custom VFS.Include functions as require aliases. Build Menu Reliability and Pre-game State Fixes refactored the build menu to remove cruft and fixed pre-game state display, ensuring the legacy build menu shows the correct selected unit. These changes reduce debugging time, improve modding support, and stabilize the pre-game UI. Technologies demonstrated include Lua, language-server integration, static analysis, and careful refactoring.
