The icon set, e621 referrer fix and setup-screen corrections shipped after
0.1.0, and the updater compares versions, so installed 0.1.0 builds would
never have seen them.
electron-builder now publishes latest-linux.yml / latest.yml and embeds
app-update.yml plus package-type, so electron-updater runs pacman -U or
dpkg -i through pkexec for packages and updates the per-user NSIS install
without elevation. The app checks only when asked (menu item), asks before
downloading and before installing, and J621_UPDATE_URL overrides the feed
for tests or forks.
deploy/push_desktop.sh builds and publishes the artifacts to
deploy/data/desktop, which the frontend nginx mounts read-only at
/desktop/. Verified detection and up-to-date handling against a local feed
with the packaged Arch build.
desktop/ serves the normal frontend build over a privileged app://j621
scheme, so localStorage, OPFS, Web Workers, WebCodecs and history routing
behave exactly like Chrome. Development points at the Vite dev server;
`npm run smoke` runs headless Electron and checks the bundled app.
External links open in the system browser, and download navigations
(?download=1 or media URLs) are rerouted through webContents.downloadURL,
since preventing them cancels the download. The setup screen names the
shell's origin when the connection test fails, and the deploy docs list
app://j621 for CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS.
