Possessive pronoun typo

it's is a contraction of "it is" — the intended meaning here is the possessive its.

Suggested change

	Another area of focus is improving the stability of the UI. Today, a cause of errors is that the UI maintains its own assumptions about backend API types. This leads to issues when the backend responses differ from the UI's assumptions.

Missing trailing newline

The file is missing a newline at the end, which can cause minor rendering or diff-tool issues.
