There are so many cool PRs merged last month. Feels like the list of achievements of the last half-year! My +1 goes to #58365 because this really is a cool improvement and I learned something new just by reading the PR! But all others are really close-by! As I am missing the Rookie PR list, from email history, thanks to Jed, I made a selection via https://github.com/apache/airflow/pulls?q=is%3Apr+%22Awesome+work%2C+congrats+on+your+first+merged+pull+request%21%22+merged%3A%3E2025-12-01+is%3Aclosed+ ...and not to have too many emails (if we do any) Rookie PR I'd favor the PR #59313 which added Japanese translations to UI.
