February 2026: Locale-aware date formatting and localization readiness implemented in actualbudget/actual. Standardized month-year display by removing the comma (e.g., 'January 2026') and ensured locale propagation to UI components to enable broader localization support. Updated VRT tests/assets to align with locale-aware changes and refined dependency handling (useEffect) to include locale, improving stability across locales. This work sets the foundation for internationalization and reduces UI inconsistencies across regions.

Monthly summary for 2025-12: Focused on polishing UI text for Sonarr/Sonarr to improve consistency and user experience. Delivered a capitalization standardization for the loading message and fixed a capitalization inconsistency identified as 'RE-calibrating' vs 'Re-calibrating'. The work enhances perceived quality and reduces user confusion during loading states, contributing to overall product polish and maintainability.
