Status: ✅ Initial Setup Complete, Compiling...

Project Structure

- Vanilla JS frontend (no framework)
- Rust backend with daemon management
- Sidecar binary configuration
Files Created
- index.html - Main HTML with splash screen and dashboard placeholder
- styles.css - Dark theme styling matching your website (#af0 accent, #0a0a0a background)
- main.js - Frontend logic for splash fade and daemon detection
- src-tauri/src/main.rs - Rust backend with daemon spawning
- src-tauri/Cargo.toml - Rust dependencies
- src-tauri/tauri.conf.json - Tauri configuration
- setup.sh - Helper script to copy blocknet binary
Splash Screen Implementation
- Pure #AF0 background (lime green)
- Centered blocknet.png logo
- No text, no loading bar (as requested)
- 1-second linear opacity fade on completion
- Auto-removes from DOM 2 seconds after fade completes
Daemon Management
- Binary copied from /Users/dh/Projects/blocknet/blocknet
- Spawns with args: --daemon --wallet wallet.dat --data ./data
- Frontend polls for api.cookie file every 500ms
- Max timeout: 30 seconds
- On success: triggers splash fade

The app is currently compiling Rust dependencies (399 total packages). This will take 3-5 minutes on first run.

Test the splash screen → dashboard transition
Verify daemon starts correctly
Verify api.cookie detection works
Begin implementing Dashboard view with:
