lift/framework

This system is the Lift web framework, a Scala-based toolkit for building web applications. It provides core infrastructure for asynchronous processing, HTTP request handling, and template rendering, while offering utilities for JSON, Markdown, and HTML manipulation. The codebase has been significantly refactored to modernize its build system, migrate to Jakarta Servlet APIs, and support Scala 2.13 and 3, while removing numerous legacy components and deprecated integrations.

This period was dominated by the removal of deprecated and legacy components across the entire codebase, including old actor models, JSON parsing, and various widget implementations. The cleanup extended to test suites and build configurations, reflecting a broad effort to modernize the framework's architecture and eliminate outdated APIs.
