-# Freedom Loader - Development Guide
-
-Welcome to the Developer Guide! This document explains how to set up your local environment, project architecture, Git workflow, and the release process.
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed on your machine:
-
-- **Node.js** (v22 or higher recommended)
-- **npm** (comes with Node.js)
-- **Git**
-- **yt-dlp binaries**: Freedom Loader requires native binaries to function. Read [BINARIES.md](./BINARIES.md) for download instructions and placement in `resources/binaries/`.
-
-## Setup Instructions
-
-### 1. Clone the repository
-
-```bash
-git clone https://github.com/MasterAcnolo/Freedom-Loader.git
-cd Freedom-Loader
-```
-
-### 2. Install dependencies
-
-```bash
-npm install
-```
-
-### 3. Install the Binaries
-
-Follow the instructions in `BINARIES.md` to place `yt-dlp`, `ffmpeg`, `ffprobe`, and `deno` in the correct `resources/binaries/` folder for your OS.
-
-### 4. Run in Development Mode
-
-```bash
-npm start
-```
-
-**Note**: Development mode automatically enables detailed colored logs and the DevTron extension for debugging.
-
----
-
-## Available Scripts
-
-### Development
-
-- `npm start` — Start the app in development mode (no warnings)
-- `npm run start:warn` — Start with deprecation warnings visible
-- `npm run start:debug` — Start with full debug logging (Wayland, Electron logging, stack dumps)
-- `npm run dev` — Start with auto-reload on file changes (watches server/, app/, main.js, config.js)
-- `npm run dev:warn` — Dev mode with warnings
-- `npm run dev:debug` — Dev mode with full debug output and auto-reload
-
-### Building
-
-- `npm run build:linux` — Build Linux packages (AppImage, deb, snap)
-- `npm run build:win` — Build Windows installer (.exe)
-- `npm run build:rpm` — Build RPM and SRPM for COPR (Fedora)
-- `npm run build:all` — Build both Windows and Linux (not recommended because it adds both OS binaries into a single package. The output file is 2x bigger than expected).
-
-### Testing
-
-- `npm test` — Run all tests (unit + integration)
-- `npm run test:unit` — Run unit tests only
-
-### Release Pipeline
-
-- `npm run release` — Build all packages and create a draft GitHub release (no store publishing)
-- `npm run release:publish` — Build all packages and publish to Snap Store + COPR
-- `npm run release:dry-run` — Simulate the full release pipeline without publishing anything
-
-### Maintenance
-
-- `npm update` — Update npm dependencies
-
----
-
-## Project Architecture
-
-Freedom Loader is built with **Electron** (frontend) and **Node.js + Express** (backend), using a modular structure:
-
----
-
-## Git & Branching Workflow
-
-I use **Trunk-Based Development** (GitHub Flow):
-
-### Core Principles
-
-- **`main` is always deployable**: The `main` branch contains the latest stable code and must never be broken.
-- **No long-lived branches**: I no longer maintain version branches like `v1.6` or `v1.7`.
-- **Pull Requests for review**: All code changes go through PR review before merging to `main`.
-
-### How to Contribute
-
-#### 1. Create a feature branch
-
-```bash
-git checkout -b feat/add-new-button
-# or for fixes:
-git checkout -b fix/ui-bug
-```
-
-**Branch naming convention**:
-- `feat/` — New features
-- `fix/` — Bug fixes
-- `refactor/` — Code cleanup (no behavior change)
-- `docs/` — Documentation updates
-- `chore/` — Dependency updates, build config, etc.
-
-#### 2. Make commits
-
-```bash
-# Make changes
-git add .
-git commit -m "Brief, imperative description of the change"
-```
-
-**Commit message tips**:
-- Use imperative mood: "Add theme caching" not "Added theme caching"
-- Keep commits logical and focused (one feature per commit if possible)
-- Link to issues if relevant: "Fix crash on download (fixes #42)"
-
-#### 3. Push and open a PR
-
-```bash
-git push origin feat/add-new-button
-```
-
-Then open a PR on GitHub against `main`.
-
-#### 4. Review and merge
-
-- Address feedback in new commits (don't rebase — easier to review)
-- Once approved, merge via GitHub (use "Squash and merge" for clean history if many small commits and you find it relevant)
-
----
-
-## Release Process
-
-**Note**: Only project maintainers release to production. This section documents the process for transparency and for future maintainers.
-
-Releases are fully automated via the `release.sh` script. The process handles building, packaging, and publishing to **all distribution channels**:
-- **GitHub Releases** (Windows .exe, Linux packages)
-- **Fedora COPR** (automatic RPM builds for Fedora 43+)
-- **Snap Store** (universal Linux)
-
-### Before You Release
-
-1. **Ensure `main` is green**: All tests pass, features are stable.
-2. **Update `package.json` version**:
-
-```json
-   "version": "1.6.1"
-```
-3. **Commit the version bump**: `git add package.json && git commit -m "chore: v1.6.1"`
-4. **Push to `main`**: `git push origin main`
-
-### Step 1: Local Build & Draft Release
-
-```bash
-npm run release
-```
-
-This:
-1. Builds Linux packages (AppImage, deb, snap)
-2. Builds RPM and SRPM for COPR
-3. Builds Windows installer
-4. Creates a draft GitHub release
-
-### Step 2: Edit & Publish on GitHub
-
-1. Go to https://github.com/MasterAcnolo/Freedom-Loader/releases
-2. Edit the draft release — fill in changelog
-3. Click **"Publish"** to make it live
-
-### Step 3: Publish to Distribution Channels
-
-```bash
-npm run release:publish
-```
-
-This automatically:
-- **Uploads to Snap Store**: Makes the app available via `snap install freedom-loader`
-- **Submits to Fedora COPR**: Builds and publishes RPMs for Fedora 43+ (users can `dnf install freedom-loader` from the COPR repo)
-
-Both happen in parallel — users across all platforms get the release simultaneously.
-
----
-
-## Linux Development Considerations
-
-### Cross-Distribution Compatibility
-
-Freedom Loader targets **Debian-based** (Ubuntu, Debian) and **Fedora-based** (Fedora, RHEL, openSUSE) distributions. When developing features, keep this in mind:
-
-#### What to test
-
-- **Feature works on Fedora 44+** (primary Linux development environment)
-- **Feature works on Ubuntu/Debian** (via deb package or AppImage)
-- **Feature doesn't break Snap confinement** (Snap has restricted filesystem/IPC access)
-- **Feature gracefully degrades on missing system dependencies**
-
-#### Desktop Environment (DE) Compatibility
-
-Test on at least **GNOME** and **KDE** (the most common DEs). Common pain points:
-
-- **Themes**: May render differently on KDE vs GNOME — test both if possible
-- **File dialogs**: Some DEs use native file pickers, others fall back to Electron's
-- **Notifications**: System notification APIs vary (D-Bus, libnotify)
-- **Tray icons**: May not work identically across DEs
-
-#### How to check locally
-
-```bash
-# Test on Fedora (if available)
-npm run build:linux
-sudo dnf install dist/freedom-loader-*.x86_64.rpm
-freedom-loader
-
-# Test AppImage (works on any distro)
-chmod +x dist/Freedom\ Loader-*.AppImage
-./dist/Freedom\ Loader-*.AppImage
-```
-
-### CI/CD Gap
-
-**Currently**: No automated testing across distros or DEs. Releases rely on manual testing before publish.
-
-**Future improvement**: Automated tests via GitHub Actions (Ubuntu) + local testing on Fedora would catch cross-distro issues early. This is planned but not yet implemented.
-
-For now, if you fix a Linux-specific bug or add a DE-dependent feature, **please mention it in your PR description** so reviewers can test extra carefully.
-
----
-
-## Testing
-
-### Unit Tests
-
-Test individual functions in isolation (no Electron required).
-
-```bash
-npm run test:unit
-```
-
-Covered:
-
-(Tests will come soon)
-
-### End-to-End Tests (Playwright)
-
-Test the actual Electron app launching and basic UI interactions.
-
-```bash
-npm run test
-```
-
-Covered:
-
-(Tests will come soon)
-
-
-### Running All Tests
-
-```bash
-npm test
-```
-
-Or include tests before release:
-
-```bash
-npm test && npm run release
-```
-
----
-
-## Common Tasks
-
-### Add a new feature
-
-1. Create a feature branch: `git checkout -b feat/my-feature`
-2. Make changes, commit: `git add . && git commit -m "feat: my feature"`
-3. Push: `git push origin feat/my-feature`
-4. Open a PR on GitHub
-5. Once approved, merge to `main`
-6. (Later) Cut a release when ready: `npm run release`
-
-### Fix a bug
-
-Same as above, but use `fix/bug-name` branch and `git commit -m "fix: description"`.
-
-### Test the app before releasing
-
-```bash
-npm run dev        # Auto-reload on file changes
-# Make changes, test in the UI
-npm test           # Run all tests
-npm run release:dry-run   # Simulate release (builds but doesn't publish)
-```
-
-### Update dependencies
-
-```bash
-npm update
-git add package.json package-lock.json
-git commit -m "chore: update dependencies"
-git push origin main
-```
-
-### Rebuild only Linux (after quick fixes)
-
-```bash
-npm run build:linux
-# Or just the RPM:
-npm run build:rpm
-```
-
-### Publish to stores manually
-
-If `npm run release:publish` fails partway:
-
-```bash
-# Just Snap:
-snapcraft upload dist/freedom-loader_*.snap --release=stable
-
-# Just COPR:
-copr-cli build freedom-loader srpm-out/*.src.rpm
-```
-
----
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### App won't start in dev mode
-
-```bash
-npm run start:debug
-```
-
-Check the debug output for errors. Most common:
-- Missing binaries in `resources/binaries/`
-- Port 8787 already in use
-- A dead instance is still running — open Task Manager and kill the "Freedom Loader" process
-
-### (Linux) Binaries in the right place but app still won't launch
-
-You probably forgot to make them executable:
-
-```bash
-chmod +x resources/binaries/linux/*
-```
-
-The app will fail silently if binaries lack execute permissions.
-
-### Build fails with "permission denied"
-
-Make sure you have write access to `dist/` and `srpm-out/`:
-
-```bash
-chmod -R u+w dist srpm-out
-npm run build:linux
-```
-
-### Tests fail
-
-Check for:
-- Missing test files in `tests/unit/`
-- Node modules out of sync: `rm -rf node_modules && npm install`
-
-### GitHub release publish fails
-
-Verify `gh` CLI is installed and authenticated:
-
-```bash
-gh auth login
-gh release list
-```

-- Test thoroughly on both Windows and Linux before submitting changes
-- Update documentation (README, DEVELOPMENT.md) when adding features
-- Maintain compatibility with:
-  - Windows 10+
-  - Fedora 43+ / Debian 11+ / Ubuntu 20.04+
-  - GNOME and KDE desktop environments (when possible)
-- Consider Linux distribution differences early (see [DEVELOPMENT.md](./DEVELOPMENT.md#linux-development-considerations))
