Dec 1, 2025December 2025 focused on delivering user-facing features with reliability improvements for bestpractical/rt, anchored by calendar integration, dashboard email quality, UI robustness, and a strengthened test/deployment foundation. Notable work includes calendar support for shortener code with unprivileged access, dashboard email enhancements (no functional pagination/sorting links and saved search Rows support) and subscription-aware behavior, UI hardening for ShowSearch (unique htmx IDs and privileged links), and event handling improvements (early listeners, init.js migration, and document delegation). Maintenance and infrastructure improvements reduced race conditions and improved CI/test isolation (private test ports and PID-based DB naming), along with loading main content for migrated page layouts to boost perceived performance. Overall, these efforts deliver tangible business value through improved usability, reliability, and faster feedback cycles for deployments.
