+It's day 17 already of our '30 Days to Liftoff' blog post challenge and the **launch of Uppy 1.0 on April 25** is coming closer by the day. The Uppy team is dealing with the big tasks now, so the updates might seem a little scant!

+## Done
+
+- [Artur](https://github.com/arturi) updated the [React Native](https://github.com/transloadit/uppy/pull/988) UI example. This is what the new UI looks like:

+
+- [Alex](https://github.com/nqst) updated the focus styles on the Uppy Dashboard, making it look quite a bit sleeker than it did before. Here's a before and after view of the Dashboard focus styles:

+
+## In Progress
+
+- Artur is reviewing PRs, reporting errors and testing Uppy in response to the team’s feedback. 
+
+- Alex continues [improving Uppy's UI](https://github.com/transloadit/uppy/compare/master...nqst:design-facelift) and has recently been refactoring CSS code, while [Evgenia](https://github.com/lakesare) keeps charging at the [many accessibility issues](https://github.com/transloadit/uppy/issues/created_by/nqst) that are still open.
+
+- Evgenia is also working on the new drag/drop implementation, which will include a new _Drop Here_ placeholder and not experience any flickering. And as if that weren't enough, she is having a go at `drop folder` support for cross-browser compatibility as well, so that it won’t be relying on DOM manipulation in our Preact components.
+
+- [Ife](https://github.com/ifedapoolarewaju) is updating this [PR](https://github.com/tus/tus-js-client/pull/73), which deals with supporting resumability for Node.js environments.
+
+
+That's all from us today. As I mentioned, we are now focusing on the big tasks and as a result, our daily list of updates might sometimes be a little shorter than usual. Remember to keep tabs on our [Twitter](https://twitter.com/uppy_io) or [RSS](https://uppy.io/atom.xml) for more Uppy updates. Day 18 is coming up next!
