Sravan a7f954ae44 mobile: Enter=newline on mobile, hide preview zoom buttons; desktop: downloads to Downloads folder (batch133)
- Mobile: the Return key now inserts a newline instead of sending (send via the button, like
  every native chat app). Desktop keeps Enter=send / Shift+Enter=newline.
- Image preview: hide the on-screen +/- zoom buttons on mobile (pinch-to-zoom covers it).
- Desktop (Electron): a will-download handler saves straight to the OS Downloads folder with no
  "where to save?" dialog, de-duping the name if it exists. NOTE: desktop code only — NOT
  published to the update feed (needs an explicit desktop rebuild/publish).

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.
