OpenArthurian: Days 14 to 16 (!) of the New Age of Arthurian

I’m trying to complete being able to generate an executable from the Studio.

Making it work when running the Studio in development mode was quite straightforward, but getting it to run fine from the distributable electron app ended up being quite a challenge that is still unresolved.

At some point I think I managed to make it work but I failed the rule #1 of AI-assisted coding: git commit when things work fine – it went into a rabbit hole of madness and I haven’t been able to fetch the reins back.

I feel I’m so lost on this that maybe it makes sense not to continue addressing it for now, and release the tool to the testers without this capability. It’s sad to see progress coming to a halt like this.

In theory, this should be a perfect case for using AI, a very well defined and standard requirement that could be done without me requiring full knowledge of the solution to take control myself and dig into and fix it, but it’s just not working.
