ksmithandClaude Sonnet 5 a0e1565097 Fix chat/room ordering that could differ between devices (#45)
Two independent gaps, both fixed since the report was ambiguous about
which "chats" meant:

- ChatPane.tsx concatenated history (REST-fetched) and live (WS-pushed)
  without sorting, so anything that could desync receipt order from
  send order -- a rejoin/resync racing a still-in-flight WS message,
  which opening the same room on another device triggers directly via
  a fresh socket connection -- could render messages out of
  chronological order. Now sorted by created_at (stable sort, so
  same-timestamp messages keep their relative order).
- list_member_rooms/list_open_rooms/list_recent_messages ordered by
  created_at alone, with no secondary tiebreaker. Postgres doesn't
  guarantee a stable order for tied rows across separate query
  executions, so two rooms/messages sharing an identical timestamp
  (a real possibility -- rapid sends, bulk-created rooms) could come
  back in a different order on two separate fetches, i.e. two devices.
  Added id as a secondary sort key everywhere this showed up.

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/.
