November 2024 Monthly Summary: Implemented cross-repo navigation enhancements to improve post-deadline and post-submission user journeys within the funding service platforms. Deliverables focused on business value by guiding users to the correct dashboard when deadlines pass while a form is open, reducing user confusion and support inquiries, and providing a consistent post-submission path to the applicant dashboard. Key achievements reflect two coordinated feature flags added across repositories: - communitiesuk/funding-service-design-frontend: deadline-based redirect_to_fund flag added to redirect users to the applicant dashboard when the application deadline passes while the form is open. (Commit: 1faff6124332764a9862d79d55d3df8496eac948) - communitiesuk/funding-service-pre-award: post-submission redirect_to_fund flag added to guide users to the applicant dashboard after submission when the deadline has passed while the form is still open. (Commit: 24433f0970b730f69470b459a374510ea83f4d59) Overall impact: Streamlined user flows, improved post-deadline and post-submission navigation, and ensured consistency across the funding service platform. These changes reduce friction for applicants and support teams, enabling faster access to relevant dashboards and status information. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Python/JS flag-based feature development, cross-repo coordination, code review discipline, commit traceability, and alignment with product requirements (FLS-778).
