The SvelteKit app under /frontend has fully superseded the legacy
vanilla-JS/CSS frontend in /static, which was only ever served by a
debug `cargo run` / `PROFILE=dev` and never shipped to production.
Remove it together with the whole subsystem that existed only to
support it (~54k lines).
Frontend & assets:
- Delete /static (js/, css/, *.html, sw.js, basemaps/, locales symlink).
- Relocate the brand/PWA assets (logo/, favicon.ico, manifest.webmanifest)
to frontend/static/ so they ship with the SPA. This also fixes the
favicon, which app.html referenced but was missing from the prod bundle.
- Migrate the Nextcloud login-flow redirects from /nextcloud-error.html
to the SvelteKit /nextcloud/error route.
Web layer:
- Simplify resolve_static_path: drop the PROFILE=dev branch; always prefer
the Vite static-dist/ build, fall back to the configured path.
- Resolve i18n locales from the served SPA dir with a frontend/static
fallback so `just dev` works without a prior build.
Build:
- Prune build.rs from 1262 to ~70 lines (git metadata only); the Rust asset
pipeline and the OXICLOUD_RUST_ASSETS rollback flag are gone.
- Drop the now-unused build-dependencies (oxc_*, lightningcss).
- Remove the COPY static lines from the Dockerfile (cacher + builder).
Tooling & docs:
- Delete biome.json, jsconfig.json, tools/check-*.py, identifier.sh.
- Remove the legacy front-* justfile recipes; repoint the design-system
scripts (locales, dead-tokens, brand-drift, token-docs) at the frontend,
and drop check-contrast/check-headings (coupled to the old token
taxonomy / multi-page HTML).
- Repoint docs/DESIGN-SYSTEM.md links; remove 5 superseded docs/plan/*.
Backend dead code:
- Remove the dead `folder_repo` field from FileBlobWriteRepository.
- Remove the deprecated GET /api/folders/{id}/listing endpoint
(superseded by /resources).
Verified: cargo clippy (all-features/all-targets) clean, cargo test
--workspace 448 passed, cargo fmt clean.

Backend — Photos timeline now groups by real capture date instead of upload time. New MediaMetadataService (FileLifecycleHook) extracts EXIF DateTimeOriginal from images and container creation_time from videos (mov/mp4/mkv) via nom-exif, timezone-correct (OffsetTimeOriginal), persisting captured_at so the existing media_sort_date trigger takes over. Adds POST /admin/photos/metadata/reextract to backfill existing media. Falls back to upload date when no embedded date exists.
Frontend — premium grid cards: combined metadata line (relative date · size, owner avatar when shared), custom selection checkbox with a clear checked state, uniform full-width 4:3 thumbnail tiles independent of filename length, centered file-type icons, and a hit-test fix so checkbox/star/kebab clicks reach the controls (the decorative thumbnail no longer captures pointer events). Notification messages internationalised across all 16 locales. Broader polish: design tokens, a11y/focus-visible states, brand + PWA assets.
Chore — bump semver-compatible dependencies (cargo upgrade); add nom-exif 3.6.1.
