Jul 1, 2025July 2025 (2025-07) highlights a focused set of business-value improvements in victronenergy/gui-v2, spanning localization, battery optimization messaging, sensor naming clarity, and UI guidance. Delivered features include British English localization with translation tooling enhancements, BatteryLife UI toast and ESS state adjustments, improved temperature sensor naming via a Device component, targeted UI polish for dialogs and controls with Modbus TCP guidance, and a new TemperatureSlider control for setpoints. Notable bug fixes addressed dialog height in popups and refinements to the power flow indicator, contributing to a more reliable and intuitive UI. The work demonstrates strong capabilities in i18n tooling, React component architecture, state modeling, accessibility, and integration with VictronConnect workflows. This accelerates time-to-value for UK users, reduces configuration errors, and improves battery longevity outcomes.
