xarmian 6d5fa969e2 feat(web): visual redesign pass across collection modals (#138)
Closes TASK-598 in PLAN-593. Applies the design doc recorded on the
task before implementation.

The work:

1. Field card alignment (resolves the T2 regression)
   Key row moved out of the header flex into a full-width block
   below. Header is now baseline-aligned at a consistent height:
   drag handle, label input, type-select, remove button all sit on
   one row regardless of whether a key row is present. Label-and-
   key feel related without being cramped.

2. Emoji picker parity
   Both modals' General tabs now render EmojiPickerButton (size
   md) next to the name input, matching the Quick Actions pattern.
   The inline .icon-btn + <EmojiPicker> dance, its showEmojiPicker
   state, and all supporting CSS are deleted.

3. Danger zone
   Archive moved out of the footer into a dedicated "Danger zone"
   section at the bottom of the General tab. Red-tinted background,
   red section header, red destructive button that fills on hover.
   Confirmation flow lives inside the section (not crammed into
   the footer). Footer is now Cancel + Save Changes only.

4. Empty states
   Fields empty state gets icon + title + description (not a bare
   string). Quick Actions empty states explain what item / collection
   actions are for, inside a dashed-bordered suggestion block.

5. Template picker
   Blank card shares the same structure as other templates — a
   muted circular + icon wrapper instead of a dashed outline. All
   cards have a consistent min-height so Blank doesn't look stubby.
   Added :focus-visible outline for keyboard users.

6. Typography rhythm
   Section labels normalized to the app convention: 0.75em, 600,
   uppercase, 0.05em tracking, --text-muted. Applied to
   .fields-label, .form-label, .actions-section-title.

7. Responsive
   Both modals: 16px overlay padding, scrollable content, full-
   width under 640px. Edit modal tab bar scrolls horizontally with
   a right-edge fade mask under 640px; settings grid collapses to
   one column; footer buttons fill width.

8. Motion
   Modal fade + subtle scale-in (160ms ease-out). Respects
   prefers-reduced-motion. Existing tab/chevron transitions kept.

Out of scope (per plan): new features (T6), backend changes,
schema shape changes.

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
