The artist page already filed every release the desktop's way, but it only
ever showed one category at a time and it showed all of it: no slice anywhere
in that grid, so an artist with 140 releases drew 140 cards. There is a page
now — All in front of the categories, a sort, a grouping by year, and the
editions opened in place under their own record, which is the part a flat
list loses — and the grid behind it stops at twelve with the way down under
it. It is the same classifier twice over the same cached albums, which the
desktop cannot do because its filing waits on a background description
harvest; the three things its own page has and this one does not — a
tracklist per record, an accent sampled per cover, the scroll-led banner —
are 140 calls and 140 decodes over mobile data for rows that are one tap
away, and ANDROID.md says so rather than leaving them looking forgotten.
The list caps at sixty with the rest a button away, before the grouping, so
the last year on screen can be a part of itself; under a name order By year
is not offered, because the years would repeat out of sequence. The mock
gains a 140-record artist so both caps are walked rather than argued about.
The same Tauri 2 project builds for Android: mobile.html as a third Vite
entry (src/mobile/, the mockup on real data), tauri.android.conf.json, the
mobile stubs (updater, lyric alignment, vocal separation), rustls reqwest
on Android, the AAudio buffer, and a hand-driven detour build
(src-tauri/android/{env,build,deploy,dev}.sh) while Developer Mode is off.
ANDROID.md is the recipe.
Playback: the media-session plugin crate (lock-screen card, MediaStyle
notification, audio focus, headset buttons, a foreground service that
promotes itself first — Android 14 kills the app otherwise), session
restore across reload and restart, solid chrome after measuring the
backdrop-filter lag.
The catalog: Search is the desktop's top bar (the top-result rule, artist
cards), the artist page and the record page are the desktop's, Home is the
desktop's landing page, Gaps per followed shelf. Playing goes through the
desktop's own source rules, moved verbatim from state.svelte.js into
src/lib/sources.js so both apps share one resolver; the phone readies the
next three tracks and crosses boundaries gapless. Save fetches a record or
a track into the library by the download rules; Transfers shows the
burst. The raw Soulseek search stays, offered on request, a peer's copy
streaming with the lane rising as the bytes arrive. Community is the
Soulseek side (rooms, chat, buddies); the private layer waits.
The opener and storage plugins (social links, the picked library folder,
all-files access), the volume normalization switch, and the harness:
tests/mobile/smoke.mjs walks the mock (a fake network behind
src/lib/events.js) and the real phone over CDP, perf.mjs measures frames.
