Milestone
v0.3.0 - Desktop Workflow Dashboard

Description

Goal

Replace the desktop scaffold panels with the first GitHub workflow dashboard over the app-server.

Why this matters

The desktop app is Nexgit's visual workflow surface. It should show issue, PR, and repository state through the Rust app-server instead of duplicating GitHub logic in TypeScript.

Command/API target

Use the typed preload path to call app-server methods for auth/repo, issue list, and PR list data.

Depends on

Out of scope

  • Do not call GitHub directly from renderer code.
  • Do not implement write actions.
  • Do not implement review/check detail panels here.

Definition of done

  • Desktop shows current GitHub repo/auth state.
  • Desktop shows first issue and PR dashboard sections from app-server data.
  • Loading, no-auth, no-repo, empty, and error states are visible and understandable.

Verification

  • pnpm desktop:typecheck
  • pnpm desktop:build
  • Run pnpm desktop:dev and include screenshots or concise manual observations in the PR description.

Contributor notes

Keep the renderer thin. Add app-server methods first when data is missing.
