Developed a dynamic and configurable bSDD URL management feature for the IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell repository, enabling users to switch data sources at runtime through a user-facing URL input with a reset option. The work involved refactoring the URL handling logic by relocating the bSDD base URL into the addon's settings, centralizing configuration and simplifying API base URL management. This approach reduced the risk of misconfiguration and improved the reliability of data dictionary integration. The implementation leveraged Python scripting, Blender development, and backend development skills, focusing on maintainability and user experience without introducing bug fixes during the development period.
