PROFILE

Sam Liddle

Sam Liddle contributed to the Skyscanner/backpack-android repository by enhancing Android UI components using Kotlin and UI design principles. He stabilized the BpkRating component’s visual consistency across themes by reverting an unintended text color change and introducing a configurable property for non-primary text, improving accessibility and design-system alignment. In a separate feature, Sam extended the Bottom Sheet Close Button to support an optional onClick lambda, enabling custom actions such as event tracking when the sheet closes. His work demonstrated careful attention to regression protection, documentation updates, and collaborative code review, reflecting a thoughtful and methodical approach to mobile development challenges.
