# Description of Changes
Fix#5164
As I mentioned on the bug
https://github.com/Stirling-Tools/Stirling-PDF/issues/5164#issuecomment-4045170827,
it's impossible to print on Mac currently because
`iframe.contentWindow?.print()` silently does nothing in Tauri on Mac,
but [it seems unlikely that this will be
fixed](https://github.com/tauri-apps/tauri/issues/13451#issuecomment-4048075861).
Instead, I've linked directly to the Mac `PDFKit` framework in Rust to
use its printing functionality instead of Safari's. I believe that
`PDFKit` is what `Preview.app` is using and the print UI that it
generates seems to perform identically, so this should solve the issue
on Mac. Hopefully one day the TS iframe print API will be fixed and
we'll be able to get rid of this code, or [there'll be an official Tauri
plugin for printing which we can use
instead](https://github.com/tauri-apps/plugins-workspace/issues/293).
This implementation should be entirely Mac-specific. Windows & Linux
will continue to use their TS printing (which comes from EmbedPDF)
unless we have a good reason to change them to use a native solution as
well.

# Description of Changes
Previously, `VITE_*` environment variables were scattered across the
codebase with hardcoded fallback values inline (e.g.
`import.meta.env.VITE_STRIPE_KEY || 'pk_live_...'`). This made it
unclear which variables
were required, what they were for, and caused real keys to be silently
used in builds where they hadn't been explicitly configured.
## What's changed
I've added `frontend/.env.example` and `frontend/.env.desktop.example`,
which declare every `VITE_*` variable the app uses, with comments
explaining each one and sensible defaults where applicable. These
are the source of truth for what's required.
I've added a setup script which runs before `npm run dev`, `build`,
`tauri-dev`, and all `tauri-build*` commands. It:
- Creates your local `.env` / `.env.desktop` from the example files on
first run, so you don't need to do anything manually
- Errors if you're missing keys that the example defines (e.g. after
pulling changes that added a new variable). These can either be
manually-set env vars, or in your `.env` file (env vars take precedence
over `.env` file vars when running)
- Warns if you have `VITE_*` variables set in your environment that
aren't listed in any example file
I've removed all `|| 'hardcoded-value'` defaults from source files
because they are not necessary in this system, as all variables must be
explicitly set (they can be set to `VITE_ENV_VAR=`, just as long as the
variable actually exists). I think this system will make it really
obvious exactly what you need to set and what's actually running in the
code.
I've added a test that checks that every `import.meta.env.VITE_*`
reference found in source is present in at least one example file, so
new variables can't be added without being documented.
## For contributors
New contributors shouldn't need to do anything - `npm run dev` will
create your `.env` automatically.
If you already have a `.env` file in the `frontend/` folder, you may
well need to update it to make the system happy. Here's an example
output from running `npm run dev` with an old `.env` file:
```
$ npm run dev
> frontend@0.1.0 dev
> npm run prep && vite
> frontend@0.1.0 prep
> tsx scripts/setup-env.ts && npm run generate-icons
setup-env: see frontend/README.md#environment-variables for documentation
setup-env: .env is missing keys from config/.env.example:
VITE_GOOGLE_DRIVE_CLIENT_ID
VITE_GOOGLE_DRIVE_API_KEY
VITE_GOOGLE_DRIVE_APP_ID
VITE_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY
VITE_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_HOST
Add them manually or delete your local file to re-copy from the example.
setup-env: the following VITE_ vars are set but not listed in any example file:
VITE_DEV_BYPASS_AUTH
Add them to config/.env.example or config/.env.desktop.example if they are required.
```
If you add a new `VITE_*` variable to the codebase, add it to the
appropriate `frontend/config/.env.example` file or the test will fail.
# Description of Changes
Adds the code for the SaaS frontend as proprietary code to the OSS repo.
This version of the code is adapted from 22/1/2026, which was the last
SaaS version based on the 'V2' design. This will move us closer to being
able to have the OSS products understand whether the user has a SaaS
account, and provide the correct UI in those cases.
* Adds a fallback mechanism so the desktop app routes tool operations to
the local bundled backend when the user's self-hosted Stirling-PDF
server goes offline, and disables tools in the UI that aren't supported
locally.
* `selfHostedServerMonitor.ts` independently polls the self-hosted
server every 15s and exposes which tool endpoints are unavailable when
it goes offline
* `operationRouter.ts` intercepts operations destined for the
self-hosted server and reroutes them to the local bundled backend when
the monitor reports it offline
* `useSelfHostedToolAvailability.ts` feeds the offline tool set into
useToolManagement, disabling affected tools in the UI with a
selfHostedOffline reason and banner warning
- `SelfHostedOfflineBanner `is a dismissable (session-only) gray bar
shown at the top of the UI when in self-hosted mode and the server goes
offline. It shows:
PostHog is now initialized with persistence: 'memory' so no cookies are
written on first load. Consent is handled in a PostHogConsentSync
component that switches to localStorage+cookie persistence only when the
user accepts, using the official @posthog/react package (cherry-picked
from 14aaf64)

# Description of Changes
Fix#5779. Cookie consent persistance doesn't work on desktop (on Mac at
least, not sure about Windows) because of permission differences with
Tauri. We are allowed to store things in local storage fine, so this
switches the cookie consent module to store in local storage for
desktop, and leaves it alone for web, where it already worked correctly.
# Description of Changes
Race condition: The browser was opened before the deep-link listener was
registered. On slow first launches the OAuth
callback could arrive before the listener was ready. Fixed by
registering the listener first, then opening the browser
inside .then() once the listener is confirmed active.
Double-handling: Both SetupWizard and
authService.waitForDeepLinkCompletion processed the same
sso/sso-selfhosted deep
links, calling completeSelfHostedSession and onComplete() independently.
Fixed by moving all SSO completion into
authService and having SetupWizard defer to it.
Hardening: Removing SetupWizard's handler entirely left no fallback if
the webview reloads while the auth listener's
Promise is in flight. A selfHostedDeepLinkFlowActive flag tracks whether
authService has an active listener.
SetupWizard now acts as a fallback only when the flag is false (i.e.
after a JS context reset), preventing duplicate
handling in the normal path while preserving resilience on reload.
