February 2026 monthly summary for felixonmars/treeland: Delivered end-to-end enhancements to the prelaunch splash experience and dock integration, focusing on reliability, multi-instance support, and UX consistency. Implemented PrelaunchSplash v2 protocol with instanceId-based multi-instance handling, SplashResource management, and lifecycle close notifications; added automated tests and offscreen validation. Integrated splash exposure in the dock via foreign-toplevel protocol, enabling visibility and close actions from the dock and ensuring the matching application window closes when a splash is dismissed. Refactored dock preview management into ShellHandler to improve maintainability and integration. Also delivered code-quality enhancements and release hygiene, including a 0.8.4 version tag and formatting improvements. These changes reduce launch-time ambiguity, improve user experience during startup, and provide a maintainable, testable foundation for multi-app launches.
