Four SPA hot-path fixes, each shipping with a vitest benchmark gate
(verbatim BEFORE replica + equivalence + perf assertion) so CI
re-verifies the win on every run:
- fetchFolderListing invoked onPage after EVERY 200-row page with the
whole accumulated listing, and the files view re-sorts everything per
emission — O(N²/page) main-thread work on large folders. Page one and
the final page always emit; intermediates coalesce to one per 150 ms.
25×200 load: 30.9 → 4.0 ms (7.8x), 65 000 → 5 200 sorted elements.
- selected/favoriteIds/sharedIds (files) and favoriteIds (recent) were
$state<Set>s copied whole on every toggle. Now one SvelteSet each,
mutated in place (the useSelection pattern): 1 000 toggles @ N=5 000
771.9 → 1.9 ms (399x); one-toggle fan-out across 40 mounted rows
40 → 3 re-runs when refining a select-all.
- batchDelete/moveInto awaited one request per item serially and
probed listing.folders.find per id (O(N·M)). Now an id index built
once + mapLimit(6) fan-out, failure semantics preserved: 100-item
delete @ 5 ms RTT 525 → 89 ms (5.9x), 38 825 → 500 probes.
- t() re-split its dotted key and walked the nested dict on every call,
and interpolate regex-scanned strings without placeholders. Resolved
values now memoize per (dict, key) in a WeakMap + a {{ guard:
20k mixed calls 22.7 → 8.6 ms (2.63x).

Add an end-to-end and unit test suite for the SvelteKit frontend:
- Playwright e2e specs (tests/e2e/spa) with a throwaway container stack,
codegen scenarios, and an Istanbul-based coverage report pipeline.
- Vitest unit tests across API endpoints, components, stores and composables.
- `data-testid` hooks on interactive elements (AppShell, FileViewer,
ShareDialog, search, photos, files breadcrumbs, login/Nextcloud flows,
public share pages) so the e2e suite can target them deterministically.
- Serve the SPA app-shell CSP from a <meta> policy (svelte.config.js) plus a
middleware that skips the CSP header on HTML; move the Nextcloud Login Flow
v2 grant page to the SvelteKit /nextcloud/login route.
- `just front-codegen` recipe and start-server-spa.sh harness.
Make the test environment robust and consistent:
- Install a deterministic in-memory localStorage/sessionStorage in the Vitest
setup so storage behaves identically across Node versions (Node 26 ships a
native Web Storage global that otherwise shadows jsdom's).
- Pin devenv to Node 26 + PostgreSQL 18 and pin every CI job to Node 26.3.0
so the dev shell and CI run the same toolchain versions.
Repair the API/WebDAV (hurl) suite, which had drifted from the backend:
- Migrate the removed `/api/folders/{id}/listing` endpoint to `/resources`
(cursor-paginated `{items:[{resource_type,resource}]}` shape) across the
batch-copy, grants, nested-group, and WebDAV NC tests + the dav_helpers
wipe routine.
- Stop photos_etag from uploading the dedup-tracked fixture so the dedup
blob-lifecycle test can own its content-addressed blob exclusively.
- dedup_create now asserts the idempotent same-content re-upload (201 +
existing file id) instead of the stale 409 expectation.
Generated coverage reports, nyc output and the e2e server runtime data dir
are gitignored rather than committed.
Checkpoint of the in-progress frontend toolchain work (Vite pinned to ^6 after
the 7/8 rolldown build break, eslint-plugin-svelte v3 navigation/reactivity
fixes, CI/Dockerfile/manifest updates) together with three UI performance
optimizations (verified on the Vite 6 build):
- Critical CSS: move auth.css/music.css off the global path into their route
chunks (login/device/nextcloud-login, music) -- -25% gzipped critical CSS
(~5.4 KB) on every non-auth/non-music page load.
- relativeTimeAgo: cache the Intl.RelativeTimeFormat (was rebuilt per call, once
per row per render) -- 22.7x faster date formatting in large lists.
- Virtualize search results and grouped trash (list view) via VirtualList -- DOM
rows mounted stay ~constant (~27) instead of O(N) (94.6% fewer for 500 hits).

- photos: generate + upload the three video-thumbnail sizes in parallel via
Promise.allSettled instead of a sequential await loop; previewData is still
captured before its upload so the local preview survives a failed upload.
- useOwnerCache: resolve the batch, then apply a single reactive assignment
to `#names` instead of spread-copying the record once per id (fewer copies
and fewer derive re-runs on large resolves).
- admin: migration status polling slowed from 2s to 5s.
- files store: soft cap (10k) on the per-item selection toggle. Bulk
"select all" in the views is intentionally left uncapped.
Defer loading components that are off the initial render path until they
are first needed, keeping them out of the bundle that loads on page entry.
- Add `lazyComponent` composable: a tiny rune-based holder that dynamic-
imports a component on first `load()` and exposes it for `{@const}`
rendering, with the component type inferred from the module so prop/
binding type-checking stays intact.
- CommandPalette: loaded on the first Cmd/Ctrl+K and mounted open via a
new `autoOpen` prop. It was previously imported by AppShell, i.e. in the
initial chunk of every authenticated route (~27 KB). AppShell now owns
the shortcut that triggers the load.
- FileViewer + WopiEditor: loaded when a preview/editor first opens, across
files, recent, favorites and shared-with-me.
- PhotoLightbox / PlacesMap / PeopleView: loaded on first lightbox open or
when the places/people tab is selected (the latter also defers maplibre).
Once loaded a component stays mounted and behaves exactly as before, so
behavior is unchanged on the second use onward.
Extends windowing to the remaining O(n)-DOM surfaces: the card-grid view of
ResourceList (recent / favorites / shared / shared-with-me / trash / search) and
the main file browser (`files/[...path]`), in both list and grid layouts.
- VirtualList gains a real grid mode: its inner window carries the caller's grid
class (`files-grid-view`) and lays out `columns` cards per windowed row. The
row pitch is auto-measured (grid card height tracks column width via the 4/3
aspect-ratio thumbnail) and re-measured on resize.
- `useVirtualWindow` now distinguishes scroll from resize and exposes a
`resizeTick`, so size-dependent layout (the grid pitch) is recomputed only when
it can actually change.
- `gridColumns(width)` (new util) mirrors the CSS `auto-fill` / `--grid-card-min`
/ gap so the windowed row count matches the browser's real wrapping exactly;
shared by both grid callers.
- The files browser flattens folders-then-files into one discriminated `entries`
list rendered through VirtualList (list: columns=1; grid: columns from width).
Grouped (swimlane) views stay fully rendered, as before — they're bounded.
ResourceList GRID, headless Chromium (1280x900), synthetic rows, before/after:
rows | mount→paint | DOM nodes | JS heap | scroll frame | jank frames
------+-------------+-----------+---------+--------------+------------
1000 | 979→75 ms | 19k→879 | 16→3 MB | 16→17 ms | 0→0
5000 | 4005→67 ms | 95k→879 | 72→3 MB | 37→17 ms | 26→0
20000 |12015→65 ms | 380k→879 |281→7 MB |197→17 ms |1249→19
Rendered DOM and heap are flat (O(visible)) regardless of dataset size; mount is
~185x faster and scroll holds ~60fps. Verified visually mid-scroll (5 columns,
4/3 thumbnail tiles, cards land at the expected indices). The files browser
shares the same VirtualList path (it can't be mounted headless — it depends on
$app routing/session — so it's validated via svelte-check + the production build
+ the shared, separately-benchmarked component).

The Photos "moments" grid rendered every tile into the DOM, so a 20k-photo
library mounted ~140k nodes / 20k <img> elements, held ~196MB JS heap, took
~3.5s to first paint and scrolled at ~6fps. It also ran the justified-layout
maths inside the template (recomputed on every reactive change) and generated
client-side video thumbnails for every off-screen video, not just visible ones.
Introduce `VirtualRows` — a variable-height, section-aware sibling of
`VirtualList` — and flatten the grouped timeline into one list of fixed-height
rows (a date header or a strip of explicitly-sized tiles) shared by both the
square and justified layouts. Only the rows near the viewport are mounted; a
prefix-sum offset table + binary search find the visible band, and a spacer
reserves the full height so the sticky header and load-more sentinel are
unchanged. The justified packing now runs once per groups/width/layout change
in a $derived, not per render.
To avoid duplicating the scroll-tracking logic across the two windowing
components, extract it into a `useVirtualWindow` composable (scroll-ancestor
detection + rAF-throttled aboveBy/viewportH signals); `VirtualList` is
refactored onto it with identical measured numbers.
Measured in headless Chromium (1280x900), synthetic photos, before/after:
SQUARE | mount→tiles | DOM nodes | <img> | JS heap | scroll frame
------------+-------------+-----------+-------+---------+-------------
2000 | 416→94 ms | 14k→629 |2000→96| 21→5 MB | 29→29 ms
5000 | 916→114 ms | 35k→629 |5000→96| 50→9 MB | 62→26 ms
20000 | 3455→220 ms | 140k→629 |20k→96 |196→29 MB|152→33 ms
JUSTIFIED 20000: mount 245 ms · DOM 315 · <img> 44 · heap 33 MB · ~60fps
Rendered DOM, mounted <img> count and heap are now flat (O(visible)) regardless
of library size; mount is ~16x faster and scroll jank drops from 413 to ≤24
frames. Off-screen video-thumbnail generation no longer fires for non-visible
tiles. Correctness verified by probing a deep scroll in both layouts (tiles
land within the viewport band; square cells equal-width, justified rows
aspect-preserving).
