The bundled en_US Hunspell dictionary was decoded with Node's Buffer, which is undefined in the browser and crashed React on app load (Blank UI). Switch to atob() + TextDecoder, available in both the browser and Node 18+, so the dictionary imports cleanly in Vite. Fixes the blank UI reported after dev server startup.
PubScript
A self-hostable, multi-user writing studio for novelists — one codebase that runs as a web app and as a native desktop app, with a local-first AI co-writing engine built in.
See PLAN.md for the full vision, architecture, and data model. The CHUNK#n.md files are the executable work orders.
Quickstart
pnpm i && pnpm dev # run the app shell at http://localhost:5173
pnpm test # run every workspace's unit tests
pnpm typecheck # strict TypeScript across the monorepo
pnpm build # build web + server
Docker (self-host)
docker compose -f docker/compose.yaml up --build
# → http://localhost:8080 (health: curl localhost:8080/api/health)
One container serves the web app, runs the Fastify API, and stores SQLite on a volume.

Status
CHUNK #1 through #6 are complete and CI-green: the monorepo with strict TypeScript, the app shell and theming system, the packages/core contracts, the Fastify multi-tenant server, the TipTap writing surface, characters & world-building, the plot & whiteboard surface, and the export pipeline (Markdown/HTML/EPUB/DOCX/ODT/PDF with an ExportDialog). pnpm typecheck, pnpm test, pnpm lint, and pnpm build all pass across the workspace.
Next: CHUNK #7 — Spell & Grammar.
