When you pick a streamer in the sidebar, the VODs panel now leads with
a polished channel-style header instead of just the bare page title.
This is the "personal" feel — you are looking at a creator, not a folder.
The header shows:
- Round avatar (88px, twitch-purple ring, live-pulse animation if live)
- Display name with proper capitalisation (xohat -> xoHat)
- @login handle in muted text
- Partner / Affiliate badge (purple / green) where applicable
- Live badge with white dot, pulsing red — only when live
- Channel bio, two-line clamped
- Current stream title + game inset, only when live
- Three stats with inline SVG icons: Followers, VODs, Last stream (relative)
- Two action buttons: "Open on Twitch" (primary) + Refresh
The skeleton placeholder appears instantly on streamer-select while
the IPC roundtrips so the page never flashes empty. Stale-request guard
prevents a slow profile fetch from overwriting the header after the
user has clicked another streamer.
Backend (main.ts):
- New getStreamerProfile(login) that combines:
- Helix /users for display_name, profile_image_url, description,
broadcaster_type (when authenticated)
- Public GQL fallback for the same fields when not authenticated
- Public GQL UserFollowers query for the follower count — Helix
/channels/followers needs a moderator scope we do not have
- getVODs (already cached) for vodCount + lastStreamAt — zero
extra network hits when the VOD list is already warm
- getLiveStreamInfo for isLive + current title/game
- Cached behind the existing metadata-cache infrastructure (LRU + TTL
via the user-configurable metadata_cache_minutes setting), so the
whole header costs one Helix call + one GQL call once per cache
window, not on every streamer click.
Frontend:
- New renderer-profile.ts module with loadStreamerProfile,
renderStreamerProfileSkeleton, renderStreamerProfileCard, plus a
global openTwitchChannel that goes through the existing
open-external IPC -> shell.openExternal pipeline.
- Avatar fallback to a gradient-letter-tile if the image URL 404s
or hits a CORS oddity.
- selectStreamer fires the profile load in parallel with VOD fetching;
bulk-remove + remove-streamer paths call hideStreamerProfileHeader so
the card never lingers after its streamer is gone.
CSS adds the .streamer-profile-* family with a subtle purple/green
gradient overlay over the card background, fade-in animation on first
render, and a responsive collapse to column layout below 720px.
