Improvements to the spawn.js element spawning library: added a method to jQuery's prototype for chaining; added a method to the jQuery global object for easily spawning jQuery-wrapped elements; added a shortcut for jQuery's .appendTo() method as a root property of the config object; you can call the same jQuery method multiple times (you might have a reason to) by passing an array of argument arrays to the $ property.

Adding files for Admin UI spawning: tabs.js for overall rendering of tabbed interfaces, panel.js for rendering individual panel elements, jquery.dataAttr.js for reconciling jQuery's .data object and [data-] element attributes, table.js for (somewhat) easier rendering of table data from an array (rows) of arrays (cells); refactored spawn.js to use best option as the main function; added methods for chainable element spawner.

Performance improvements to Spawner™ spawn.js and $.spawn.js with new methods - spawn.element() and spawn.plus(); Chainable element generator - XNAT.element().div().p('Content'); Specific methods for individual elements - XNAT.element.tag('Content'); These need more testing before widespread usage.

XNAT-3910, XNAT-3918, XNAT-4030: MAJOR UI CHANGES! NEW topBar nav menu and user bar; many, many tweaks to styling; removed a bunch of <table> elements that were used for layout; tweaked CSS to account for that; updates to 3rd-party JavaScript libraries (but rolled back jQuery to 1.12.0).
