ksmithandClaude Sonnet 5 14dc340174 Rename project from KeepItTalking to DS Chat
Renames the app's display name everywhere (page titles, PWA manifest,
TopBar, email subject lines, HMAC signature header) and its internal
technical slug from chatapp to ds-chat/ds_chat: the Python package name
and console script, the systemd unit and its user/group/paths, the deploy
scripts, the Docker container names, and the Postgres database name.

The live dev Postgres role stays "chatapp" -- renaming a role requires
disconnecting the session using it, which needed a temporary superuser
role Claude's auto-mode classifier correctly declined to create
unsupervised. Functionally invisible (it's just a login credential), but
worth knowing about if this ever needs fully cleaning up by hand.

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/.
