Add petrol_lpg, diesel_lpg and hydrogen to the fuel_type choices, across the six places that define them: the PocketBase schema, the car form and detail view in both the Web App and the Phone App, and the two doc comments that enumerate the values. The Go API needed no change — it passes fuel_type through as a free string, so PocketBase is the only validator. Model the LPG conversions as their own choices rather than a separate "has LPG" flag: the car runs on either tank, so "petrol + LPG" is what an owner picks it out as. Order each variant next to its base fuel so the dropdowns read naturally. Purely additive — existing rows keep their values and need no migration. The live PocketBase schema does still need scripts/setup-pocketbase.mjs re-run before the new choices will save, since its select field allows only the old four; the script reconciles select values on existing fields, so re-running migrates it in place.

DriverVault — Web App
Maintenance tracker for your cars: a Vue 3 + Vite + Tailwind CSS v4 SPA served
by a small Go backend-for-frontend (BFF). The BFF serves the built SPA and
reverse-proxies /api/* to the API Server, so the browser is always same-origin
and all data access still flows through the API Server (never PocketBase directly).

Requirements
- Node 18+ and Go 1.26+
- A running API Server (see
../API Server)
Develop
Two terminals:
# terminal 1 — API Server (see ../API Server/README.md)
cd "../API Server"; ./api-server.exe
# terminal 2 — Vite dev server with hot reload (proxies /api -> :8080)
cd web; npm install; npm run dev # http://localhost:5173
The dev server proxies /api/* to the API Server (default http://localhost:8080,
override with VITE_API_TARGET), so the client uses same-origin relative URLs and
avoids CORS. It also listens on all interfaces (host: true) so it's reachable on
the LAN (e.g. http://10.2.1.101:5173).
At runtime, users can override the API base URL from the login screen's Server
settings (persisted in localStorage as cc_server_url); resolution order is
that override → VITE_API_BASE → /api.
Build & run (production-style)
./server/Run-WebApp.ps1 # builds frontend, then serves on :8090
# or manually:
cd web; npm run build # outputs to ../server/dist
cd ../server; go run . # http://localhost:8090
Config (server/.env, copy from .env.example):
| Variable | Purpose | Default |
|---|---|---|
WEB_ADDR |
Listen address | :8090 |
API_BASE |
API Server base URL | http://localhost:8080 |
Features
- Dashboard — one card per car: last service, odometer, next-due date/km, and a status badge (OK / due soon ≤30d / overdue) from the Excel formulas. Add a car; shared cars are labelled and gated by your access level.
- Car detail — full service history (date, km, computed next date/km, and the changed-parts flags) plus the per-car parts catalog and all car spec fields (engine / transmission / differential oil, brake fluid, coolant, VIN, …). Add/edit/delete service records, parts, and the car; share the car with other users (read/write, owner only). Edit/delete controls are hidden for read-only shares.
- Settings — account (name / email verification / password), appearance (theme light/dark/system, locale, date format, font size), profile (avatar, bio), data export/import, active sessions with remote logout, and the account-deletion state machine.
- Admin —
/adminuser management (list / create / role / reset password / delete), gated by the admin role via a router guard + nav link. - Theming — light/dark/system app-wide (Tailwind v4 class strategy);
prefs.jstoggles.darkon<html>and applies the saved theme/locale/date/font.
Auth & access
Login gets a JWT from the API Server (stored client-side) and creates a server
session. auth.js exposes isAdmin and the current profile; the router guards
public / admin routes. Cars are per-user (owned + shared), and the UI mirrors
the server's read / write / owner access levels.
