July 2025 monthly summary for pixijs/pixi-react: No new features released this month; primary focus on stabilizing runtime and correcting a module resolution issue in the React reconciler integration. Delivered a critical bug fix that prevents runtime import errors and restores correct behavior across builds.

May 2025: Focused on reliability and performance for pixijs/pixi-react. Delivered a packaging optimization by externalizing dependencies in Rollup builds, enabling consumers to manage their own dependencies and shipping a lighter library. Fixed critical hook reliability issues: ensured useTick re-runs on app?.ticker, isEnabled, and context changes, and aligned React hooks usage with eslint-plugin-react-hooks rules by including useIsomorphicLayoutEffect in exhaustive-deps. These changes improve runtime stability for tick-based animations, reduce risk of hook-related bugs, and simplify integration for adopters. Demonstrated competencies in React hooks, Rollup packaging, ESLint configuration, and dependency management. Business value: faster load times, better stability, and smoother onboarding for projects using the library.
