ksmithandClaude Sonnet 5 1adb4fcbe0 Add markdown :name: emoji shortcode support in messages (#27)
Typing a complete 😂/😉/etc. shortcode now renders as the emoji,
matching Slack/GitHub/Discord. Render-time only, alongside the existing
preserveLineBreaks preprocessing step -- stored/sent content keeps the
raw :name: text, same as markdown itself is never converted until
display. Fenced code blocks and inline code spans are skipped so
pasted code (a Ruby symbol, a dict key) isn't silently mangled.

frontend/src/lib/emojiShortcodes.ts is generated once from
emojibase-data's GitHub shortcode set (same one-time-generator approach
as #19's emojiNames.ts, never a runtime dependency) -- 928 of the
app's 936 emoji matched, 956 aliases, no collisions.

DS Chat frontend (Phase 1)

React + Vite PWA. Login, room list, and chat views wired to the backend's REST API and /ws/chat WebSocket endpoint. See ../README.md and ../backend/README.md for full local setup.

Dev

npm install
npm run dev

The dev server proxies /api and /ws to http://localhost:8000 (see vite.config.ts), so the backend must be running for anything beyond the login page to work.

Build

npm run build

Generates the PWA manifest and service worker via vite-plugin-pwa into dist/.
