a11y.24: `text-overflow: ellipsis` in 40+ places, and the four highest-density lists were the ones with no `title` — the queue panel (whose width is user-resizable down to MIN_WIDTH), track-info, every track-list cell, and the playlist sidebar. In track-list the attribute is on the *cell*, not on what is inside it: the value may be a link, a highlighted search match or plain text, and a tooltip is inherited by descendants either way. One binding rather than three, and the same value the accessor already computed. a11y.32: every queue row's remove button was named "Remove from queue", so a list whose entire purpose is which track is where had four identically named controls.
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.
