Fiona Spooner contributed to the owid/owid-grapher and owid-content repositories by delivering three targeted features over three months, focusing on front end development and data configuration using TypeScript and CSV. She improved user navigation by refactoring site menus, removing outdated entries, and adding a dedicated section for antibiotic datasets, which enhanced discoverability and consistency. In owid-content, she extended the CSV schema to control chart tab visibility for sensitive immigrant data, ensuring safer data presentation. Her work emphasized maintainability and clarity, with changes that streamlined user workflows, standardized UI elements, and aligned navigation with evolving content strategy and governance requirements.

Month: 2024-10 — owid/owid-grapher delivered a targeted UX/navigation cleanup to improve user flow and maintainability.
