This iteration I was mostly focusing on ydoc-server build scripts and migration to bazel:

• Finished refactoring of node widgets. The node icon is no longer special, it is always drawn as a widget - part of Resizable widget for Table.new #10484
• Split ydoc server into separate module #10735 - separated parts of gui project into separate workspace-level projects. Now ydoc-server can be a standalone nodejs process with its own build pipeline.
• Use bazel in place of pnpm calls in rust build script. #10508 - Working on migrating remaining parts of GUI build pipeline to bazel. Currently stuck on issues with building rust on windows.

#10473 (missing syntax errors for unexpected usages of =) is a deep issue. I have a fix in a PR that will be ready today. On the way there, I fixed:

• Improve structures resulting from inputs with errors #5444
• Support type-annotated expressions at the top level of a block #6152
• Private foreign function should result in parser error #10137
• Wrong error recovery: bind all things on the right side of unclosed ( #6741
• Parser panics on unsupported type names #8633
• Box Variant variants, not Variants #5452
• Release-mode parser builds #5331
• Fixed sbt/run incompatibilities around parser dependencies, that caused redundant builds and "CI: Clean build needed" cases.
• Set up basic support for fuzz testing the parser.
• Improved Rust parsing performance by 33%; now 20 MB/s on my bench machine
