Keep WebUI migration plans next to the frontend code so route work
has one predictable home.
Standardize the set around one page migration overview plus
per-route migration plan docs for future tasks.
Keep the page chrome sync helpers in shell-bridge.js so React and legacy routing share one implementation.
This preserves the sidebar breadcrumb and discover download bar behavior without shadowing the legacy shell helpers in init.js.
- Describe the route-slice layout under webui/src
- Call out the dash-prefixed non-routing file convention
- Explain when to use unit, route, MSW, and Playwright tests
- Point readers to the current issues slice as the example to follow
- Replace the shell convenience script with a cross-platform Python launcher.
- Keep dev.sh as a Unix compatibility wrapper.
- Let the direct backend bind with host and port overrides.
- Update the root and webui README guidance for the new launcher.
- Preserve the backend startup behavior used by the old dev flow.
- Introduce dev.sh as the local backend + Vite launcher
- Document the separate backend/frontend development flow
- Note that the dev Gunicorn config restarts Python on file changes
- Note that Vite hot reloads React changes in webui
