Project Overview
Readest is a cross-platform ebook reader built as a Next.js 16 + Tauri v2 hybrid app. It's part of a pnpm monorepo at /apps/readest-app/. The app runs on web (CloudFlare Workers), desktop (macOS/Windows/Linux via Tauri), and mobile (iOS/Android via Tauri).
Common Commands
# Development
pnpm dev-web # Web-only dev server (no Rust compilation needed)
pnpm tauri dev # Desktop dev with Tauri (compiles Rust backend)
# Building
pnpm build # Build Next.js for Tauri
pnpm build-web # Build Next.js for web deployment
# Testing (see [docs/testing.md](docs/testing.md) for full details)
pnpm test # Unit tests (vitest + jsdom)
pnpm test -- src/__tests__/utils/misc.test.ts # Run a single test file
pnpm test -- --watch # Watch mode
pnpm test:browser # Browser tests (Chromium via Playwright)
pnpm tauri:dev:test # Start Tauri app with webdriver
pnpm test:tauri # Run Tauri integration tests
# Linting & Formatting
pnpm lint # Biome (linter) + tsgo (type check)
pnpm format # Prettier (runs from monorepo root)
pnpm format:check # Check formatting without writing
# Rust
pnpm fmt:check # Check formatting Rust code (src-tauri)
pnpm clippy:check # Lint Rust code (src-tauri)

Rust Backend (src-tauri/)
Platform-specific code lives in src-tauri/src/{macos,windows,android,ios}/. Custom Tauri plugins are in src-tauri/plugins/.
Git Worktrees
Always use pnpm worktree:new <branch-name|pr-number> to create worktrees. Never use git worktree add directly — the script handles submodule initialization (simplecc WASM, foliate-js), dependency installation, .env copying, vendor assets, and Tauri gen symlinks that are required for lint and tests to pass.
pnpm worktree:new feat/my-feature # New branch from origin/main
pnpm worktree:new 3837 # Checkout PR #3837 with push access to fork
Project Rules
Rules are in .claude/rules/: test-first, typescript, verification.
i18n
See docs/i18n.md for the key-as-content translation approach, stubTranslation usage in non-React modules, and extraction workflow.
Safe Area Insets
See docs/safe-area-insets.md for rules on handling top/bottom insets for UI elements near screen edges.
