Background

The frontend has no lockfile committed to the repository. This means npm install or pnpm install can resolve different dependency versions on different machines, leading to non-reproducible builds and potential runtime differences.

Task

  1. Decide on a package manager (npm or pnpm — check which is used in CI)
  2. Run npm install (or pnpm install) locally to generate the lockfile
  3. Commit package-lock.json (npm) or pnpm-lock.yaml (pnpm) to the repo
  4. Update .gitignore to NOT ignore the lockfile if it was previously excluded
  5. Update the CI workflow to use npm ci (or pnpm install --frozen-lockfile) instead of npm install

Acceptance Criteria

  • Lockfile is present and committed in the frontend directory
  • CI uses frozen install mode (--frozen-lockfile or ci)
  • npm ci / pnpm install --frozen-lockfile succeeds from a clean checkout

Roadmap: P2 Frontend — missing package-lock.json or pnpm-lock.yaml

Verified: frontend/package-lock.json is committed to the repo. The CI workflow does not yet use npm ci or --frozen-lockfile, but the core acceptance criteria of having a lockfile committed is met. The CI optimization is covered by issue #260. Closing.
