Thomas Eizinger 9210ed2a97 fix(gui-client): don't say "signed in" without a connlib session (#9477)
With the introduction of the "connect on start" configuration option, we
introduced a bug where the GUI client said "Signed in as ..." even
though we did not have a `connlib` session. The tray-menu handles this
state correctly and clicking sign out and sign in restores Firezone to a
functional state.

This disparity happened because we assumed that having a token means we
must have a session.

To fix this, we introduce a new `SessionViewModel` that combines the
state of the auth session and the `connlib` state. Only if we have both
do we infer that we are "signed in". This also requires us to introduce
an intermediary state where we are "loading". This is represented as a
spinner in the UI.

Last but not least, this also removes the automated hiding of the client
window. In a prior design, the only job of this window was to show the
"Sign in" button so it wasn't useful beyond clicking that. Now that we
show more things in this window, automatically hiding it might confuse
the user.

Here is what this new design looks like:

As a result of other improvements around "zero-click sign-in", the user
often doesn't even have to switch to the browser window because sign-in
happens in the background. Unfortunately, the tab still remains open but
that is outside of our control (at least on Linux).

This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.

Getting Started

First, install dependencies and populate the timestamps.json file:

pnpm setup

Next, create files .env.local and .env.development.local in this directory.

Put this in .env.local:

NEXT_PUBLIC_MIXPANEL_TOKEN=""
NEXT_PUBLIC_GOOGLE_ANALYTICS_ID=""
NEXT_PUBLIC_LINKEDIN_PARTNER_ID=""
FIREZONE_DEPLOYED_SHA=""

And this in .env.development.local:

# Created by Vercel CLI
EDGE_CONFIG=""
FIREZONE_DEPLOYED_SHA=""
SITE_URL=""
VERCEL_DEEP_CLONE=""

After that, make sure to contact the team for their values.

Then, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

Linting

This project uses Prettier to format code and ensure a consistent style. Use the .prettierrc.json in the root of this repo to configure your editor.
