# memory — tiletopia
|
||
|
||
Durable memory for this project. Read at session start, update before session end. Date format: `YYYY-MM-DD`.
|
||
|
||
## Decisions & rationale
|
||
|
||
- **Stack: Tauri 2 + Svelte 5 + TypeScript + Vite + pnpm + xterm.js + `portable-pty`.** Mirrors `claude-usage-widget` so we reuse a known-good Windows-targeting toolchain (MSVC + WebView2 + NSIS installer). No new technology bets stacked on top of the new product bet.
|
||
- **Layout model: binary tree of splits, NOT free-form rectangles.** Same as i3 / tmux / Zellij. Each internal node is HSplit/VSplit + ratio; each leaf is a terminal. Dragging a gutter mutates one parent ratio; both sibling subtrees reflow; descendants get `resize`. Adaptive resize falls out automatically with no constraint solver. Preset layouts ("3 columns", "2×2") are pre-built trees.
|
||
- **PTY backend: `portable-pty` (same crate WezTerm uses).** Spawns `wsl.exe -d <distro> --cd <path>` on Windows. Manager is a `Mutex<HashMap<PaneId, PaneHandle>>` in Rust; each pane has a background reader thread that emits `pane://{id}/data` events.
|
||
- **Wire format: base64-encoded byte chunks via Tauri events.** xterm.js's `onData` emits strings; we UTF-8 encode then base64. Slower than a typed-array payload but trivially correct. Revisit if throughput matters.
|
||
- **Source on Windows-native disk (`D:\dev\tiletopia\`), symlinked into WSL.** Same pattern as `rimlike` (`D:\godot\rimlike`) and `tavernkeep`. Forced by pnpm 11.x's `isDriveExFat` crashing on `\\wsl.localhost\...` UNC paths.
|
||
- **Don't commit `node_modules`, `src-tauri/target`, or `.pnpm-store`. DO commit `Cargo.lock`** (binary project, reproducible builds).
|
||
- **Session awareness without an in-pane agent.** Plan: poll `/proc/<pid>/cwd` of the shell's child + foreground process every ~2s. Sufficient to detect `cd` and whether `claude` is running.
|
||
- **State propagation in the layout tree: hybrid mutable + replace.** The root tree is `$state(...)` at App level. Direct mutation (e.g. `node.ratio = X` during gutter drag) is reactive via Svelte 5's deep proxy. Structural changes (split/close) go through pure helpers in `tree.ts` that return a new root, which App reassigns. Drag stays fast (no tree walk); structural changes stay simple. `{#key leaf.id}` around `LeafPane` ensures swapping a leaf in/out cleanly unmounts XtermPane (which kills the PTY on destroy).
|
||
- **Layout persistence: localStorage at App level, key `tiletopia.tree.v1`.** Saves on every `$effect` tick (deep reactivity catches all mutations). Migrating to `%APPDATA%/tiletopia/` is M3.
|
||
|
||
## Open questions / TODOs
|
||
|
||
- [x] ~~**M2 — splits-tree layout component.** Two panes side by side, draggable divider, both panes alive. Save/restore layout as JSON.~~ Done 2026-05-22.
|
||
- [ ] **HMR distro picker reset.** Less acute now that distro selection is per-leaf (auto-applied at split time from app-level default). The titlebar `default:` buttons let the user re-set the default at any time. Revisit when adding per-pane distro switching in M3.
|
||
- [ ] **Auto-save debouncing.** Currently every tree mutation writes to localStorage. Dragging a gutter fires many writes per second. Cheap (localStorage is fast, JSON is small) but worth debouncing in M3 when persistence moves to disk.
|
||
- [ ] **M3 — workspace persistence + preset layouts.** Migrate from localStorage to `%APPDATA%/tiletopia/workspaces.json` (via Tauri's `plugin-store` or direct FS). Add preset layouts (3 columns, 2×2 grid). Multi-workspace tabs. Per-pane distro override and pane labels.
|
||
- [ ] **M4 — orchestration.** Broadcast input groups, idle/finish notifications, Ctrl+K fuzzy palette.
|
||
- [ ] **M5 — Ship.** Replace placeholder icons, NSIS installer, Forgejo release. Copy `claude-usage-widget`'s release scripts.
|
||
- [ ] **Native Windows shells (cmd / pwsh)?** `portable-pty` supports them for free; keep the option open. Decide whether to expose in UI at M3.
|
||
- [ ] **Persistent scrollback across app restarts.** Would need an out-of-process mux daemon. Big scope creep; explicitly deferred past v1.
|
||
- [ ] **Keybinding philosophy.** Copy tmux, copy WezTerm, or invent? Decide at M3.

## Session log
|
||
|
||
### 2026-05-22 — M2 splits-tree layout
|
||
|
||
- Added `src/lib/layout/`: `tree.ts` (pure helpers: types, newLeaf, splitLeaf, closeLeaf, replaceById, serialize/deserialize with shape-checking), `SplitNode.svelte` (flex container + draggable gutter with pointer-capture), `LeafPane.svelte` (toolbar with split-right/split-down/close + XtermPane underneath), `Pane.svelte` (recursive dispatcher).
|
||
- Rewrote `App.svelte` to hold the tree as `$state` and wire split/close callbacks through. Auto-saves to localStorage on every `$effect` tick.
|
||
- Distro UX: titlebar shows clickable distro buttons that set the **default** for new panes. Existing panes keep their distro. Per-pane override is M3.
|
||
- Passes `pnpm check` cleanly (108 files, 0 errors, 0 warnings).
|
||
- Validated manually on Windows: splits-right and splits-down work, both panes stay alive, gutter drag reflows both xterm sides cleanly, close-pane collapses to the sibling, layout restores from localStorage across window restarts.
|
||
|
||
### 2026-05-22
|
||
|
||
- Graduated from `ideas/wsl-mux/` to project. Renamed working name `wsl-mux` → final name `tiletopia` across Cargo/package/Tauri configs and source.
|
||
- Promoted spike contents from `D:\dev\wsl-mux\spike\` to `D:\dev\tiletopia\` (no more spike subdir; the project IS what was the spike).
|
||
- Initialized git, created private Forgejo repo `tiletopia`, pushed initial scaffold.
|
||
- M1 verified manually on the Windows host: window opens, xterm.js renders, `claude` TUI works inside the pane, resize reflows cleanly, `htop` renders. Distro auto-pick chose `docker-desktop` (Docker Desktop's BusyBox helper distro) on first try — added explicit clickable distro buttons in the titlebar as both a diagnostic and a manual override. Clicking `Ubuntu` works end-to-end.
|
||
- Old idea folder archived to `~/claude/archive/ideas/wsl-mux/` (preserves full brainstorm + session log).

|
||
- **Stack precedent:** `~/claude/projects/claude-usage-widget/` — same Tauri + Svelte + WebView2 toolchain, already ships a Windows installer via Forgejo releases. WSL distro-probing logic copied/adapted into `src-tauri/src/pty.rs`.
