On Android the hardware keys are the volume control and the framework mixes our stream against the device level, so a second control inside the app moves something the user already moved. Where that is true the player's level sits at maximum, SetVolume / ChangeVolume / MuteToggle are refused, and nothing persists a level nobody chose: restore remembers the stored value instead of applying it, and saveState writes that same value back rather than recording the synthetic maximum. Mute is in that list because it is a level of zero by another name -- and because with no control rendered it would be the one state on such a platform the user could not get out of. The predicate is named after the capability rather than the platform, because that is what makes it testable. Only platformOwnsVolume is behind a build tag, in two files that declare nothing else; everything else is decided against Player.systemVolume, a field a test sets either way. That is mediacontrols' split, with androidpayload.go's reasoning for keeping the contract out of a tagged file, and the tagged pair is covered by a source sweep since no tier here compiles both halves. SetDuck is deliberately untouched: it applies its attenuation by re-applying the *user's* level through setVolumeLocked, so pinning that level to maximum leaves the offset arithmetic exactly as it was. It is the only thing that may still move the output on such a platform, and TestSystemVolumeStillDucks is that property rather than a comment.
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.
