Over a two-month period, contributed to backend and API development across swiftlang/swift-package-manager and tuist/tuist repositories. Addressed a critical packaging issue in swift-package-manager by updating the ZipArchive compress function to preserve symbolic links, using Swift and focusing on file system operations and robust testing to ensure package integrity during publishing. Later, enhanced the tuist/tuist registry API by implementing HTTP HEAD request support in Elixir, updating backend controllers and routing to enable efficient existence and metadata checks without resource transfer. This work improved API usability, reduced bandwidth, and strengthened test coverage, supporting scalable client tooling and reliable package management workflows.
