March 2026: Delivered a comprehensive Session Management Overhaul for openemr/openemr by migrating core and portal sessions from native PHP to Symfony's HttpSessionFactory via SessionUtil. Implemented read-and-close support with reopen monitoring, added static analysis gates (PHPStan/Semgrep), and cleaned up porting leftovers. Established runtime guardrails and developer guidance to prevent direct session writes, enabling safer, scalable session handling. Fixed portal messaging display to ensure messages render reliably for users. Technologies demonstrated include Symfony sessions, HttpSessionFactory, SessionUtil, PHPStan, Semgrep, and Redis-readiness considerations.
