🎯 Overall Summary

Iteration 12 focused on routing correctness, simulation observability, frontend usability, deployment readiness, and internationalization. This iteration delivered route-generation fixes for next-stop rendering and in-service task filtering, new backend user preferences endpoints, multiple simulation reporting enhancements (total vehicle distance, live sim reporting, lag reporting, and distance-to-next-traffic-event), improved route behavior with scheduled recalculations and smooth position transitions, and major frontend experience upgrades including multi-station selection, updated station iconography, station names, and a collapsed driver-task view. Infrastructure and deployment improvements include GraphHopper deployment support and a production-focused .dockerignore.
