#59 took the seek bar off the phone's transport, so the one thing a mini player is expected to say without being opened -- how far through the song it is -- had nowhere left to be said. It is the shell's element and its own 2px grid row between `bottom-bar` and `bottom-nav`, because those two are separate components and either one drawing the line means reaching into the other's box. The fill is `scaleX()` off the same `PlaybackPositionChanged` the seek bar renders, with the same `trackChangeId`/`seq` guards and an interval that only interpolates *between* reports -- never its own clock, which is the rule that exists because a local counter drifted 30 s away from the backend across four keyboard seeks. It is `aria-hidden` and takes no pointer events at any depth: Now Playing's seek bar is what announces the position, and a 2px strip on the top edge of the tab bar is exactly where a thumb aiming at a tab lands. It renders nothing above 600px, from `matchMedia` rather than a media query, because a stylesheet cannot stop a 1 Hz interval running for the life of every desktop session about a line nobody can see. Its phone rule is at the foot of index.css beside `job-band`'s, not in the phone block above: a media query adds no specificity, so a `display: block` written before the `display: none` that takes it out of the desktop grid loses to it and the line never appears at all. Closes #58
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.
