Summary of major features, optimizations, and notable fixes merged since commit 3b2f512 (Vexxx v1.1.0-rc.24 - Release Candidate v24)
Major Features & Integrations
Comprehensive MUI v7 frontend overhaul — theme improvements, responsive typography, new utilities/hooks, glassmorphism, skeleton loaders, and broad component polish for modern visuals and accessibility.
Rating UI revamp — replaced star ratings with a horizontal gauge (`RatingBar`) including fullscreen overlay and touch support.
Image phashing (phash) — backend phash generation and frontend UI for phash display and filtering; phasher CLI extended.
StashID array filtering — multi-ID filter support across entities for more powerful queries.
Gallery generate task — add ability to queue metadata generation for galleries (thumbnails, phashes).
Destroy DB entries without deleting files — new GraphQL mutation and service changes to remove DB records while preserving filesystem files.
Synchronous scanFile mutation — on-demand single-file scanning (immediate result), complementing async metadata scan.
Performance & Optimizations
Gallery zip scan optimization — skip iterating zip contents when container hash unchanged, reducing large-scan overhead.
SQLite path-filtering improvements — decomposed path search, prefix-match detection, INNER JOINs for path filters, and write-side trimming to enable indexes and reduce per-row overhead.
Refactors to scanning/queueing — moved directory walking/queuing into scan task code to simplify and optimize scanning logic.
Frontend Architecture & Tooling
Bootstrap removal + Sass module migration — removed Bootstrap 4, migrated SCSS to modern @use/@forward and adopted MUI sx patterns.
Large-scale SCSS → MUI sx migration — numerous components converted to theme tokens and sx prop usage, reducing custom CSS and improving consistency.
Sidebar list UI — upstream studio/performer/gallery sidebar patterns integrated for consistent filtering UX across lists.
Notable Bug Fixes
Fix for scene cover merge removing covers when no new cover provided.
Modal backdrop & menu interaction fixes (pointer-events / hideBackdrop).
Lightbox arrow hover positioning fix.
Support for local image URLs when authentication is enabled (fetch via browser session / DB read fallback).
Restore settings access when auth is disabled after user creation (no-auth detection fix).
