byGalax eac19823ea perf(call): JPEG thumbnails + memoized picker cards unfreeze the grid
The picker still felt frozen while thumbnails were streaming in because
each result was both (a) large — PNG @ 320×180 landed at 60-150 KB
base64 — and (b) triggering a high-priority React re-render of the whole
grid. Three fixes together restore interactivity:

- Thumbnails encoded as JPEG @ Q70 at 240×135 instead of PNG @ 320×180.
  Drops the typical payload from ~100 KB to ~20 KB, so IPC JSON-parsing
  on arrival is 5× faster.
- SourceCard wrapped in React.memo so only the card whose thumbnail just
  landed re-renders. Previously one new thumbnail caused all ~20 cards
  to re-evaluate their props.
- setSources updates run inside startTransition so scroll / click events
  stay on the high-priority lane while the grid backfills.

Also: when the user enables "Sound mit übertragen" AND has a source
picked, the picker now surfaces an inline amber note explaining that
the OS picker will appear for the audio capture path. Matches the
existing console info log but is visible pre-click so users don't
experience it as a bug.

@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.
