Sravan 62a5f750af fix(desktop): notification click no longer reloads to a dead page (0.1.9/batch62)
Root cause of the persistent "notification opens a dead page / no Join" bug:
openFromNotif gated the in-place open on `window.ME`, but ME is declared with
`let` — which never creates a global property — so window.ME was ALWAYS
undefined and every click hit the full-page-reload fallback. Use bare `ME`.

Also:
- Notifications fire instantly: never block on the DP download. Use the photo
  only if already cached; warm the cache in the background + pre-warm all
  contact DPs on chat load (precache-avatars IPC). Removes the ~2.5s lag.
- Wire call Join/Decline handlers BEFORE firing the OS notification so Join is
  live the instant the invite popup appears (was dead until the toast settled).

Biz Connect — Desktop client

Electron shell that loads the live Connect web UI and adds native screen capture. See the overall plan in ../CLIENTS.md.

Run (dev = local testing)

npm install
npm start                                   # dev auto-targets http://localhost:8090 (your local server)
SERVER_URL=https://remote.bizgaze.com npm start   # …or point dev at production to compare

npm start IS the local desktop test — no separate "local" installer needed. In dev (unpackaged) the shell defaults to the local server; a PACKAGED installer defaults to production. SERVER_URL overrides either. (Bash/Git-Bash syntax above; in PowerShell: $env:SERVER_URL='…'; npm start.)

Build installers

npm run dist        # electron-builder → Win NSIS / Mac dmg / Linux AppImage

Signed, trusted installers need certificates:

  • Windows: an EV (or OV) code-signing certificate.
  • macOS: Apple Developer ID cert + notarization (CSC_LINK, APPLE_ID, APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD).

Notes

  • The window loads ${SERVER_URL}/home; relative /api and /ws URLs work because the origin is the server itself — no web-code changes.
  • setDisplayMediaRequestHandler in main.js is what makes "Share Screen" work in Electron; it currently defaults to the primary display. Swap in a source-picker for production.
  • The session is persisted (persist:bizconnect) so login survives restarts.
  • window.__NATIVE__ === 'desktop' is exposed for the web UI to feature-detect.
