xarmian d36f11cf40 fix(server): a workspace whose owner no longer resolves never yields a '//' path (BUG-4050) (#2334)
* fix(server): a notification whose workspace owner no longer resolves has no deep link, never a '//' path (BUG-4050)

* fix(needs): a needs row whose workspace owner no longer resolves has an empty path and no link, never '//' (BUG-4050)

* fix(needs): fail the request on an owner lookup error instead of reading it as no owner (BUG-4050)

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Pa22hHHb1atXYf1JmBYE1v

* test(needs): an owner lookup error must answer 500, not merely not-200 (BUG-4050)

* test(needs): rebind the owner-corruption UPDATEs so they run on Postgres (BUG-4050)

The raw ? placeholders were a syntax error under make test-pg, so both
postgres subtests failed before reaching the handler.

Pad Web UI

SvelteKit 2 + Svelte 5 frontend for Pad, compiled to static files and embedded into the Go binary.

Development

npm install
npm run dev          # Dev server at localhost:5173 (proxies API to localhost:7777)
npm run build        # Production build to build/
npm run check        # Type checking with svelte-check

When developing, run the Go backend separately with make dev from the project root.

Building for Production

Do not build in isolation. Always use make build from the project root — this builds the web frontend, then compiles the Go binary with the build output embedded via //go:embed.

Stack

  • Svelte 5 with runes ($state, $derived, $effect)
  • SvelteKit 2 with adapter-static (SPA mode)
  • Tiptap block editor with markdown round-trip
  • svelte-dnd-action for drag-and-drop in board/list views
  • SSE for real-time updates
  • TypeScript throughout
