Mar 1, 2026March 2026 was a focused delivery month for fez-frontend, delivering targeted front-end features, a critical bug fix, and groundwork for maintainability. Key features included Admin Alert Management: Unresolve Alerts with accompanying code quality and CI configuration scaffolding to improve maintainability; APC: Conditional Link Display to avoid showing empty links and improve UX; and Journal View: Link to UQ Read and Publish Agreements to streamline access. A major bug fix ensured alert unresolved state persists across navigation by updating the reducer and tests. These changes reduce admin friction, improve data integrity, and enhance user experience, while introducing maintainability improvements and better access to publishing information. The work demonstrates strong React/Redux state handling, front-end UX optimization, and a proactive stance on CI/CD and code quality.
