Swap the unmaintained parcel-bundler@1.x for Vite's build API, called
from the same generateAssets hook. Output layout is unchanged
(dist/src/main/main.js + dist/static/index.html + dist/renderer.{js,css})
so no runtime path changes — __dirname-based asset lookup, loadFile, and
packagerConfig.ignore all keep working.
Renderer is built in lib/CJS mode with Node builtins + electron
externalized; a one-line banner aliases exports=module.exports since the
Electron <script> context provides module/require but not a bare exports
global. CSS (98.css + root.css) is now imported from app.tsx so Vite
emits a single renderer.css with fonts inlined.
Drops parcel-bundler and rimraf (vite-build clears dist/ itself).
~800ms full build.
The stylesheets only used Less for variables and nesting, both of which
are now native CSS features supported by Electron 41's bundled Chromium.
- src/less/ -> src/css/, all .less files renamed to .css
- @win-* variables -> :root custom properties + var()
- // comments -> /* */
- Dropped unused @win-silver
- Removed less devDependency and the dead 'less' npm script
(pointed at a non-existent tools/lessc.js)
Replace the sparse start/settings cards with a Win95-styled launcher:
- Start screen is now a 'Welcome to Windows 95' dialog with a gradient
side stripe, a rotating tip box, and a button column.
- Settings is a tabbed Properties sheet (Floppy / Network / State) with
group boxes, sunken read-only path fields, and OK/Cancel.
- Vendored 98.css and its Pixelated MS Sans Serif fonts; dropped the
old 95css-based .btn/.card/.nav classes.
- Removed the bottom taskbar nav (start-menu.tsx) — navigation now goes
through the dialog buttons so the launcher isn't mistaken for the
running OS.
