xarmian d311245654 feat(collection-page): gate item-create affordances on canEditCollection (TASK-1104) (#418)
The collection list page renders multiple "create item" affordances —
header "+ New" button, quick-create input, empty-state CTA, and view-level
buttons via EmptyState — to all roles regardless of whether they can
actually create items in this collection. Server rejects the writes; this
hides the affordances entirely.

Per-collection gate via workspaceStore.canEditCollection(collection.id) —
not the binary canEdit. A viewer with a CollectionGrant.edit on Tasks
sees "+ New" on /tasks but not on /ideas. A guest with only an ItemGrant
sees no create affordance anywhere (server cascade: item grant doesn't
promote to collection-wide write).

Changes:
- Header "+ New" button: hidden when !canEditThisCollection.
- Quick-create input: only renders when both quickCreateOpen AND
  canEditThisCollection (defensive, since openQuickCreate is no longer
  callable through any visible affordance).
- Empty-state-box CTA: hidden when !canEditThisCollection. Message also
  switches from "Create your first ..." to "This collection is empty."
- View-level oncreate prop: undefined when !canEditThisCollection, so
  EmptyState (the shared empty-state component) hides its own create
  button automatically.

Parent: PLAN-1100.

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
