A

Hi everyone uh welcome to digital experience. This is search to have support groups, uh iteration uh plan or not planning. What are we doing showing displaying the end of the iteration? Thank you. The release, the release, video um yeah. This is not my my morning afternoon um today is Thursday. January 12th I will go over what we worked on for the last two week uh period.

A

um First I will show our mascot here, okay, uh so this is mascot uh that began this iteration. A little welcome back minions uh and I will start uh so. For me, this iteration was primarily focused on the blog, uh the new blog repository that we're building out.

A

um So we spun up a new blog repo um I temporarily got um promoted to basically CTO, uh so that I could create a new main branch um and then promptly demoted back to a regular maintainer on the repo, um so now I'm able to push to that branch, and it has inherited the same properties as all of the digital experience uh project group members. So anyone who was a maintainer in that group is a maintainer on the new blog repository.

A

Anyone who was a developer is a developer on that repository, um so that blog repo exists, there's a very basic static site on there. My next steps will be to kind of fill that out with slippers and our navigation and some content and get that going.

A

um I also uh fixed a little footer link, um mistake, typo, that said, privacy policy in the footer instead of privacy statements that got released with the navigation uh recently um and I believe that's it. Oh yeah, just general investigation for the blog uh repo making sure that next is a good tool um and it seems to be uh we're using next three with content, two, um which is a nice pairing, uh so very excited to keep working on that. uh That's it for me. uh Next is Miguel.

B

Thank you um for this duration. uh I. Did a text pack uh laying out these steps to create a markdown component in sorry book also how to update an existing component.

B

um I created some issues to follow up there and continue that work in the next iteration for creating uh the first component of those um I also worked on on getting the get started uh fixed for the page loading too slow, uh there's still an issue there that we need to address so I'll, be creating a new issue to address in the new iteration for that and um I also uh created a zombie Mars to delete a duplicated uh images and also unused images.

B

uh I believe that all duplicated images are already removed, uh but they're mice. There might still be um unused images that we need to look out, and uh for that issue um we will need. We will also need to have some options, um like kind of a small text spec for the static folder to do it in an external bucket, so I'll be doing a little bit of that and um yeah. That will be from from my end, and next is scary.

C

Yep um for the consideration I worked on um uh looking at our analytics from our latest uh nav update um and then figured out and try to like think through some quick wins that we could do for updating, rnf um I think what we'll do next is uh potentially release some a b tests um in lieu of that, but um for now, I just kind of uh did some little tests for the UI and then I also started an all resources.

C

Page update um just looking at competitors what our competitors do with um all resources pages and then I started a rough wire frame of that um and then I'm gonna hand it off to miracle.

D

um So this iteration I released a new nav I, also fixed um a bug in one of our links in the nav and I um added a new redirect to our redirects file. um I am working on the two one trust GTM blocker issues.

D

um I did make some Headway I met with a senior security engineer for our country code, one trustwalker um and uh we did further diagnose the problem. um He also got a little bit blocked on that. So I'll be meeting with him again next week to try to resolve this issue and then I also have a new plan of attack for our one trust: blocker. That's just in our buyer experience and uh dead repose um and that's it for me. I will pass it to John.

E

Thanks um I was on vacation in this iteration, but I returned uh at the half of it of it. um I create another epic to improve and reduce duplicated code uh using the animation library right now we are free of all the duplicated code. In all the pages that we have in budget experience right now, we are only initializing, the animations in the layouts, so that is a good Improvement and that's it for me. Next one is Lauren she's. Not here, I can speak for her. uh Mostly.

E

She was working on internationalization uh on working with parsley and German translation in the homepage, and that's it for her.

A

Thanks everyone- and we will see you next time.
