byGalax 16d179f8e8 fix(call): Response return-type can't be wrapped in Result
Previous commit had the command typed as Result<tauri::ipc::Response,
String>. Turns out that forces Tauri to JSON-serialise the variant
wrapper around the Response body — the frontend gets a JSON object
instead of the raw ArrayBuffer, the runtime check for byteLength fails,
and every thumbnail comes back as null.

Changed the return type to `tauri::ipc::Response` directly. Bad source
ids and capture failures now funnel into an empty byte buffer; the JS
side still detects "no thumbnail" via `byteLength === 0` so the
contract stays the same.

Frontend also widens the invoke-result typing to ArrayBuffer |
Uint8Array | number[] so an older WebView2 that happens to deserialise
as an array still works, and normalises into a plain ArrayBuffer
before constructing the Blob to sidestep a TS SharedArrayBuffer
incompatibility.

@chat-app/desktop

Tauri v2 + React + Vite + Tailwind desktop client (macOS / Windows / Linux).

Prerequisites

  • Node 22+, pnpm 9+
  • Rust + Cargo (install via https://rustup.rs)
  • Platform build deps:
    • macOS: Xcode Command Line Tools
    • Linux: libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev, build-essential, libssl-dev (Debian/Ubuntu)
    • Windows: Microsoft C++ Build Tools + WebView2

Dev

# from repo root
pnpm install
pnpm desktop:dev      # tauri dev — launches Vite + native window
pnpm desktop:build    # production bundle per platform

Layout

  • src/ — React app (Vite bundles into dist/).
  • src-tauri/ — Rust backend. main.rs wires Tauri plugins.
  • vite.config.ts — port 1420, HMR on 1421, aliases to shared packages.

Secure Storage

Session tokens + user private keys live in Stronghold (tauri-plugin-stronghold). Local message history lives in SQLite (tauri-plugin-sql), DB file encrypted at rest.
