RMB focused on modernizing and stabilizing the UI platform for the BeyondDimension/Common and BeyondDimension/DirectoryPackages repositories by systematically upgrading Avalonia UI framework dependencies and related packages. Over seven months, RMB delivered a series of targeted upgrades, including major transitions to Avalonia 11.3.0 and the integration of new UI components such as the Avalonia.Controls.ColorPicker. Using C# and XML, RMB aligned dependency versions, improved build stability, and enhanced cross-repo compatibility. The work included backend improvements like YARP ReverseProxy upgrades and bug fixes for HTTP image loading, resulting in a more maintainable, performant, and future-ready UI architecture across both repositories.

January 2026: Delivered Avalonia Color Picker integration for BeyondDimension/DirectoryPackages. Added Avalonia.Controls.ColorPicker dependency to enable color selection UI, laying groundwork for richer UI components and consistent color input UX. No blocking bugs reported this period. This enhancement improves user experience by enabling out-of-the-box color selection and reduces future rework for custom color inputs, while showcasing solid dependency management and change-tracking through the commit b9868ebb7466e5a88157fe453b3e9c593731dac8.
