March 2025 – razorpay/blade: Focused on UI fidelity and cross-app stability in module-federated environments. Key fixes delivered to align with design specs and to reduce layout conflicts in federated deployments. Key deliverables: - UI color consistency: Updated color tokens so input components render with surface.text.gray.muted, aligning with Figma design specs. - Modal layout compatibility: Removed position: absolute from ModalContent in the web version to prevent layout conflicts across module-federated apps; updated snapshot tests to reflect the change. Impact: - Improved visual fidelity and design accuracy with no public API changes. - Reduced risk of UI drift in federated environments and increased test reliability for layout-related changes. Technologies/Skills demonstrated: - Front-end color token management and design-to-code alignment - Regression testing and snapshot updates - Awareness of module federation implications for UI components
