Users can set a display name (shown instead of username in the message list, room member list, TopBar, and admin Users tab) and upload a real avatar, replacing the generated color-initial avatars everywhere a user appears. Avatars are square-cropped and downscaled to 512px, reusing app/storage.py's upload primitives from image uploads with a new square option. Two deliberate divergences from message-image handling, documented in backend/README.md: the previous avatar file is deleted on replace/remove (safe since it's strictly one file per user), and avatar serving is not room-gated and uses a short cache (identity-addressed and mutable, unlike a message image's permanent content-addressed URL). Frontend: new ProfileModal reachable from the TopBar account menu; AuthContext gains updateUser() so a profile change reflects instantly everywhere without a refetch.
KeepItTalking 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/.
