During February 2025, Sangita focused on strengthening the authorization logic in the ucsb-cs156-s25/team02-s25-12 repository. She addressed a critical bug in the currentUser utility by improving the robustness of the hasRole data handling, specifically ensuring that null or empty nested data would not trigger incorrect authorization checks. Using JavaScript and TypeScript, she applied careful optional chaining and updated tests to cover edge cases, reducing the risk of security vulnerabilities. Her work demonstrated attention to detail in frontend development and testing, resulting in a more reliable authorization system and aligning the codebase with continuous integration standards for safer production deployments.
