+## 1. Architecture & Request Flow
+
+In production, NGINX acts as both the high-performance static web server for Dashfront assets and the secure reverse proxy for the Dashback Express service.

+| Path | Handled By | Cache Policy | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `/index.html` & `/` | NGINX static file | `no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate` | Always fresh so users get new script hashes |
+| `/sw.js`, `/registerSW.js` | NGINX static file | `no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate` | **Must never cache**; avoids bricking PWA updates |
+| `/workbox-*.js` | NGINX static file | `no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate` | Workbox runtime loader |
+| `/manifest.webmanifest` | NGINX static file | `public, max-age=3600` | PWA manifest definition |
+| `/assets/*` | NGINX static file | `public, max-age=31536000, immutable` | Content-hashed JS, CSS, WASM, and workers |
+| `/api/events` | Dashback (`:4208`) | `no-cache, no-buffering` | Server-Sent Events (SSE) live push notifications |
+| `/api/*` | Dashback (`:4208`) | Dynamic / Backend controlled | REST endpoints, auth cookies, image & PDF uploads |
+| All other paths | NGINX `try_files` | Fallback to `/index.html` | React Router HTML5 History API deep linking |
+
+---
+
+## 2. Key Technical Requirements
+
+1. **PWA Lifecycles**: A Progressive Web App checks for updates by fetching `sw.js`. If NGINX caches `sw.js` or `index.html`, client devices can remain stuck on obsolete bundles indefinitely.
+2. **SSE Streaming**: Real-time push updates at `/api/events` require NGINX proxy buffering and proxy caching to be turned **OFF**, with a 24-hour read timeout to prevent arbitrary 60-second connection drops.
+3. **Payload Limits**: Inbound delivery invoices (PDF receipts scanned client-side) and high-resolution article photos (AVIF) require a request body limit of at least `50m`–`100m` (matching Dashback's `BODY_LIMIT`).
+4. **Cookie Authentication**: Dashback issues HTTP-only `token` session cookies. NGINX must pass the original `Host`, `X-Real-IP`, and `X-Forwarded-Proto https` headers so Express sets and retains cookies correctly.
+5. **Camera Access (HTTPS)**: Mobile barcode scanning requires a secure origin (HTTPS) and appropriate `Permissions-Policy` response headers.

+
+## 4. Detailed Breakdown of Critical Directives
+
+### PWA & Cache Invalidation Strategy
+
+PWA update lifecycles depend on byte-for-byte comparisons of `sw.js` when the user visits the page:
+1. **`sw.js` and `registerSW.js`**:
+   ```nginx
+   add_header Cache-Control "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate";
+   ```
+   If NGINX serves `sw.js` with a 30-day cache header, browser service worker checks will read from disk cache and never detect new application releases.
+2. **`index.html`**:
+   Must also have `no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate`. When a new build is run, Vite produces chunks with new hashes (e.g., `index-AbCd12.js`). If `index.html` is cached, users continue loading old references that may no longer exist on disk.
+3. **`/assets/`**:
+   Because Vite / Rolldown generates content-addressed filenames (hashes change whenever contents change), these files are completely immutable and safe to cache for 1 year (`max-age=31536000, immutable`).
+
+### SPA Routing (`try_files`)
+
+Dashfront uses React Router with HTML5 History API pushState:
+- Direct visits to URLs like `/artikel/10001`, `/kategorien/12`, `/lieferung/neu`, or `/kunde` do not correspond to files on disk.
+- The directive:
+  ```nginx
+  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
+  ```
+  instructs NGINX to first check if a matching static file exists (e.g. `/favicon.svg` or `/assets/...`). If not found, it internally rewrites the request to `/index.html` without returning an HTTP 404, allowing React Router to resolve the route in-browser.
+
+### Server-Sent Events (SSE) Buffering & Timeouts
+
+The backend provides real-time model invalidation via `GET /api/events`. By default, NGINX buffers HTTP responses. If buffering is enabled:
+1. Events sent by Dashback stay in NGINX's internal memory buffer until the buffer fills up (often several kilobytes), causing clients to miss instant UI updates.
+2. NGINX will close idle proxy connections after `proxy_read_timeout` (default 60s).
+
+The dedicated `/api/events` block fixes both issues:
+```nginx
+proxy_buffering off;
+proxy_cache off;
+chunked_transfer_encoding off;
+proxy_set_header Connection "";
+proxy_read_timeout 86400s;
+```
+
+### File Uploads & Request Body Limits
+
+In Dashfront:
+- Inbound deliveries support multi-page PDF invoices and OCR processing (`pdfconvert-wasm`).
+- Article management supports client-side AVIF image generation.
+- The default NGINX limit is `1m` (`client_max_body_size 1m;`), which causes HTTP 413 (Payload Too Large) errors on invoice uploads.
+- Setting:
+  ```nginx
+  client_max_body_size 100m;
+  proxy_request_buffering off;
+  ```
+  allows uploads up to 100 megabytes and streams the body directly to Express without waiting for NGINX to buffer the entire file on disk.
+
+### WebAssembly (WASM) MIME Types
+
+Dashfront uses WebAssembly for:
+- `@jsquash/avif` (image encoding)
+- `@jsquash/resize` (squoosh resizing)
+- `pdfconvert-wasm` (PDF page extraction and rasterization)
+
+Modern browsers require the HTTP header `Content-Type: application/wasm` for streaming compilation (`WebAssembly.instantiateStreaming`). If missing, NGINX may default to `application/octet-stream`. The WASM block guarantees the correct MIME header:
+```nginx
+location ~* \.wasm$ {
+    default_type application/wasm;
+}
+```
+
+### Camera & Hardware Permissions
+
+The article lookup and delivery receipt features allow scanning barcodes using device cameras. Web browsers enforce two strict rules for camera access:
+1. **Secure Origin**: The page must be served over HTTPS or `localhost`. Plain HTTP over local IP addresses (e.g., `http://192.168.1.100/`) will automatically disable `navigator.mediaDevices`.
+2. **Permissions Policy**: The header `Permissions-Policy "camera=(self)"` ensures the browser allows Dashfront to access connected webcams or smartphone cameras.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Alternative: Remote Vite Dev Server Proxy
+
+If you want to access the live **Vite development server** (running on `localhost:4209` with HMR) through NGINX from a smartphone, tablet, or external domain:
+
+```nginx
+# Map connection upgrade for Vite HMR WebSockets
+map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
+    default upgrade;
+    ''      close;
+}
+
+server {
+    listen 443 ssl;
+    server_name dev-dash.example.com;
+
+    ssl_certificate     /etc/letsencrypt/live/dev-dash.example.com/fullchain.pem;
+    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/dev-dash.example.com/privkey.pem;
+
+    client_max_body_size 100m;
+
+    # 1. API Calls -> Dashback (Port 4208)
+    location /api/ {
+        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4208;
+        proxy_http_version 1.1;
+        proxy_set_header Host              $http_host;
+        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP         $remote_addr;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For   $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+        proxy_buffering off;
+        proxy_read_timeout 86400s;
+    }
+
+    # 2. Vite Dev Server & HMR -> Vite (Port 4209)
+    location / {
+        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4209;
+        proxy_http_version 1.1;
+
+        # Crucial for Vite Hot Module Replacement (HMR) WebSocket
+        proxy_set_header Upgrade    $http_upgrade;
+        proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
+
+        proxy_set_header Host              $http_host;
+        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP         $remote_addr;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For   $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
+
+        proxy_read_timeout 86400s;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> When proxying to Vite dev server, ensure `server.allowedHosts = true` or add your domain to `allowedHosts` in [vite.config.js](file:///home/seb/src/dashfront/vite.config.js).
+
+---
+
+## 6. Deployment & Operations Runbook
+
+### Step 1: Build Dashfront for Production
+
+On the development machine or build server:
+
+```bash
+cd /home/seb/src/dashfront
+npm run build
+```
+
+This compiles optimized bundles and service worker files into `dashfront/dist`.
+
+### Step 2: Install and Verify NGINX Configuration
+
+```bash
+# 1. Copy config file to sites-available
+sudo cp deploy/nginx-dashfront.conf /etc/nginx/sites-available/dashfront
+
+# 2. Enable site by creating a symlink
+sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/dashfront /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
+
+# 3. Test configuration syntax
+sudo nginx -t
+
+# 4. Reload NGINX without dropping active connections
+sudo systemctl reload nginx
+```
+
+### Step 3: Obtain TLS Certificates with Certbot
+
+```bash
+sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-nginx
+sudo certbot --nginx -d dash.example.com
+```
+
+### Step 4: Ensure Filesystem Permissions
+
+NGINX worker processes run as the `www-data` user by default. Ensure the directory path to `dist/` is readable:
+
+```bash
+# Allow www-data execution on parent path components
+chmod 755 /home/seb /home/seb/src /home/seb/src/dashfront /home/seb/src/dashfront/dist
+```
+
+Or deploy build artifacts into a standard web directory:
+
+```bash
+sudo mkdir -p /var/www/dashfront
+sudo rsync -av --delete /home/seb/src/dashfront/dist/ /var/www/dashfront/dist/
+sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/dashfront
+```
+

+
+## 7. Troubleshooting Matrix
+
+| Symptom | Cause | Solution |
+|---|---|---|
+| **HTTP 404 on page reload** on sub-routes (`/artikel`, `/kunde`) | Missing SPA fallback in NGINX | Ensure `try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;` is present in `location /`. |
+| **PWA does not update** after deployment | `sw.js` or `index.html` cached in browser | Verify `Cache-Control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate` on `sw.js`, `registerSW.js`, and `index.html`. |
+| **HTTP 413 (Payload Too Large)** when uploading invoice PDF or image | Default NGINX upload limit is 1MB | Add `client_max_body_size 100m;` to the `server` or `location /api/` block. |
+| **Live SSE events disconnect every 60s** | Default `proxy_read_timeout` timeout | Set `proxy_read_timeout 86400s;` and `proxy_buffering off;` on `/api/events`. |
