Measured at the reference device's 424x439, every button here was 33x21px -- in the bottom bar and on the full-screen view alike. #56 reports them as "the most important thing in the mobile app and they are tiny", and that is the number behind it. The context is a **property, not a media query**, and that is the whole design. Everywhere else in this app a component states what it drops at phone width itself, because a media query inside a shadow root is answered by the viewport and that is the honest signal. Here the two hosts want different answers at the *same* viewport: on a phone the bar wants three controls sized for a thumb and now-playing-view wants five, larger still. So the host says which context and the viewport says which size band, and neither alone can express it. Play/pause alone goes above the 44px floor. A row of five identical squares says every action is equally likely, which is not true of play -- "large play/pause, adequate prev/next" is the Direction, and a spec caught that the first version had sized all three the same. Two things that fail silently: The desktop bar must not move, and a `<button>` does not inherit its font from its parent -- the UA stylesheet gives it one. So a generic `font-size: inherit` is not the no-op it reads as: it took every desktop control from 33x21 to 36x24. The box rules take a zero fallback and the font-size rules are scoped to the two contexts that set one. And the art on now-playing-view overflowed its own box, drawing over the header above and the title below, because `aspect-ratio: 1` with a definite width derives a height that nothing bounds -- 60vh bounds the viewport, not the room left over. `max-height: 100%`. Pre-existing; found by reading a screenshot, which is the only tier that can see it. What is left is #172: with the transport at 172px of a 439px screen the art is a 39px sliver. Closes #56
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.
