The panel is flex-shrink: 0 in the flow of .content-area, so an open queue was paid for by the main panel rather than covering it. Measured on Playlists: 379px of content left at 900x600 with all three of the page header's actions clipped, 69px at 390px, and 0px at 320px — where the content was not degraded but gone. It goes to an overlay with a scrim when the content cannot spare the width, and the rule is computed rather than breakpointed: `available - panelWidth < 480`, where available is .content-area's width and so already accounts for the sidebar's collapse at 900. A media query cannot express this, which is the reason for the property: the panel is drag-resizable between 200 and 500px and persisted, so a viewport breakpoint silently assumes the default 320 and is wrong by up to 180px for a user who widened it — in the direction that hurts, since a wider queue is exactly when the content can least afford it. 480 is a judgement and the comment says so: there is no cliff to derive it from (the track list rescales continuously, 213px to 124px columns with no row overflow), so it is anchored to keep the default 1100px window inline while putting every measured-broken case on the overlay side. The overlay is a presentation and not a fork — #55 asks for one component with two mount points — so the roving tab stop, Alt+Arrow reorder, drag reorder and selection semantics are untouched. Escape closes it and returns focus, attached only while the overlay is up: it is a dismissal rather than a shortcut, which is why it is not a panel-scoped binding. The scrim covers the content area only, not the sidebar or the transport, because the queue is not modal. Refs #24
YellowJacket Frontend
This directory contains the frontend for YellowJacket.
Dependencies
There are a couple of tools that are required to build and use the frontend.
vitefor- transpiling typescript
- bundling the final "package" that is useb by the webview
- running a dev server with hot-reloading
- configured with the
vite.config.tsfile in this directory
pnpmfor managing frontend dependency packages
There are a handful of dependency packages that we use directly in the frontend.
picocssfor basic CSS while developinglitfor a simple but powerful wrapper around Web Components
Lastly, there are some dependencies that only benefit development
tsservercomes bundled with vscode and can be used as an LSP with other editors usingtypescript-language-server- Used for autocomplete, syntax highlighting, etc.
- This can be configured with the
tsconfig.jsonfile in the root of the project- NOTE: your configuration should align with the
viteconfig so you get in-editor feedback that aligns with how the build will be done.

Development
Ideally, you would use the frontend in the wails app as the frontend depends on the Go bindings generated by Wails.
You can do this by running wails dev in the root of the YellowJacket repo.
If you want to run the frontend standalone, make sure the Wails go bindings have been generated with wails generate modules.
Then, you can run pnpm dev to run the vite dev server.
For more information on what commands are available, refer to package.json.
Code
Web Components
Our frontend is based off of Web Components, a standard that provides native browser encapsulation of components that can include HTML, CSS and Javascript all together.
Instead of writing these components manually in Javascript, we utilize lit as a wrapper library.
Typescript
To better integrate with our tooling and to provide a better developer experience with strong typing, we have written all functional frontend code in Typescript. Vite serves as our Typescript transpiler.
Important Files and Directories
NOTE: most of these directories have aliases defined in tsconfig.json and vite.config.ts so that we may refer to them by shorthand when importing.
