Contributions summary:Anthony primarily focused on enhancing the network module within the Waybar project. Their contributions involved reworking the network interface auto-detection and address lookup mechanisms to use events instead of polling, optimizing the module's reactivity to network changes. They added carrier information handling and implemented features to improve the module's state management when dealing with interface and route changes, especially when routes are deleted or new ones are established. The work included code refactoring and improving the handling of network events and route priorities.
