The front end moves to web/ (Vite, TypeScript, no framework) and is built
into web/dist, which the server embeds. hls.js is bundled from npm and
loaded on demand instead of vendored.
The feed is a custom pager instead of CSS scroll snapping: drag and flick
with a spring that keeps the finger's speed, a rubber band at the ends,
one page per wheel or trackpad gesture, and only three cards in the DOM.
Playback uses two decks. The next track is buffered shortly after the
current one starts and tracks crossfade through a Web Audio graph; on iOS,
where that would break lock-screen playback, they switch with a cut. An
analyser drives a bass pulse of the artwork and its glow, and each card
takes its accent colour from the artist image. Styles start from design
tokens and respect reduced motion.
Docker gets a Node build stage; legal pages use their own small stylesheet.
New axum server in backend/ with the same HTTP API and database as the
Python one. The pl8list session is only held in memory during the feed
crawl and logged out afterwards. Local sessions use a __Host- cookie,
30-day idle expiry and weekly token rotation; the old cookie is migrated.
The audio and image proxy only accepts known parameters, fixes the content
type, follows redirects only to pl8list's file host and caches segments and
images on disk. Strict security headers, origin checks on POST, body and
concurrency limits.
/impressum and /datenschutz are rendered from env variables. The account
menu offers data export, sign out on all devices and account deletion.
hls.js is self-hosted and artist images are proxied, so the browser only
talks to this server. The Docker image builds a static binary on scratch.
