Frontend

The frontend is a SvelteKit app using Svelte 5 runes, TailwindCSS, Paraglide for i18n, and typed API access generated from the backend OpenAPI spec.

This page is for contributors changing the web app or its shared marketing controls.

Expectations

• Use standard Svelte 5 runes
• Keep API calls typed
• Preserve adapter-static output because the backend embeds the built assets
• Reuse the shared Shadcn-svelte controls from frontend/src/lib/components/ui/ for inputs, text areas, selects, checkboxes, radio groups, sliders, and related form UI
• Keep marketing controls on those same primitives; the marketing SvelteKit project resolves $lib to the shared frontend library
• Do not add visible native input, select, or textarea elements outside the shared primitives

Useful commands

bun run dev -- frontend
bun run check -- frontend
bun run lint -- frontend
bun run test -- frontend
bun run check -- ui-consistency
bun run build -- frontend

The cached frontend task owns frontend/build. bun run build -- frontend packages that validated artifact into backend/cmd/openpost/public only after the build completes, so stale or partial files cannot enter the Go embed tree.
