A typed, reusable API client that all pages will use to communicate with the backend.

What needs to happen

Create src/lib/api.ts — a thin wrapper around fetch. It should:

Set Content-Type: application/json on requests
Include credentials (cookies) for auth
Throw typed errors on non-2xx responses
Provide typed methods: api.projects.list(), api.projects.get(key), api.issues.list(projectKey, filters?), api.issues.create(projectKey, input), api.issues.update(projectKey, number, input)

Also configure the Vite dev server proxy in vite.config.ts:

/api → http://localhost:8659
/auth → http://localhost:8659

This lets the frontend dev server and Go backend run independently during development.

A typed, reusable API client that all pages will use to communicate with the backend. ## What needs to happen Create `src/lib/api.ts` — a thin wrapper around `fetch`. It should: - Set `Content-Type: application/json` on requests - Include credentials (cookies) for auth - Throw typed errors on non-2xx responses - Provide typed methods: `api.projects.list()`, `api.projects.get(key)`, `api.issues.list(projectKey, filters?)`, `api.issues.create(projectKey, input)`, `api.issues.update(projectKey, number, input)` Also configure the Vite dev server proxy in `vite.config.ts`: - `/api` → `http://localhost:8659` - `/auth` → `http://localhost:8659` This lets the frontend dev server and Go backend run independently during development. ## Key files - `web/src/lib/api.ts` — new - `web/vite.config.ts` — add proxy config
