Fixes:

• Missing condition identifiers are treated as falsy before negation and logical evaluation, aligning SSR with the browser runtime (fix: negate missing condition paths correctly fix: negate missing condition paths correctly #449 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).

• Dynamic Link-mode components wait for native stylesheet readiness across navigation and component assets, preventing unstyled flashes (fix: prevent dynamic component stylesheet flashes fix: prevent dynamic component stylesheet flashes #454 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).
• Authored component definitions defer whenever compiled template metadata has not arrived, including ordinary router navigation (fix: defer authored define() whenever template metadata is missing fix: defer authored define() whenever template metadata is missing #461 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).

• Projection compilation bounds source reads, excludes binary and unsupported-loader inputs from semantic analysis, and preserves deterministic cleanup under large esbuild graphs (fix: bound projection adapter source reads fix: bound projection adapter source reads #489 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).
• Router pending UI remains mounted through pre-commit work and settles at the synchronous DOM commit, with stale, aborted, and re-entrant navigation cleanup kept generation-safe (fix: settle router pending UI during navigation commits fix: settle router pending UI during navigation commits #491 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).

Docs:

• The documentation site adds accessible responsive navigation, improved reading layouts, stronger search behavior, and Playground recovery states (feat: polish WebUI documentation experience feat: polish WebUI documentation experience #459 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).
• Slot-resolution implementation guidance now documents pre-order lookup, pending placement ownership, and marker handling (chore: clarify slot resolution comments chore: clarify slot resolution comments #471 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).

• Release builds use Thin LTO to retain cross-crate optimization with faster linking (perf: switch release builds to Thin LTO perf: switch release builds to Thin LTO #464 by Mohamed Mansour (@mohamedmansour)).
