The virtualization attempt in commit9dbc0adbroke all Slack-like features by oversimplifying the rendering callback to only show plain text. This commit restores the working version from86910edthat includes: - Message bubbles with styling - Avatars and user names - Timestamps - Reply/Like/Repost buttons - Hover effects - Thread opening on click - All message interactions Virtualization is deferred as future work. The current implementation works correctly but may have performance issues with 1000+ messages. All critical fixes from previous commits are preserved: ✓ State synchronization (queries TimelineCache) ✓ Reaction persistence (queries nostrdb) ✓ Error handling (no panics) ✓ Internationalization (tr!() for all strings) ✓ Code refactoring (process_chat_action)
NoteDeck Columns
A TweetDeck-style multi-column interface for Nostr built with Rust and egui.
Overview
NoteDeck Columns is a specialized UI component of the NoteDeck Nostr client that provides a TweetDeck-inspired multi-column layout for browsing Nostr content. It allows users to create customizable "decks" with multiple columns, each showing different types of Nostr content (home timeline, notifications, hashtags, profiles, etc.).
Features
- Multi-column layout: View different Nostr content types side by side
- Customizable decks: Create and customize multiple decks for different use cases
- Column types:
- Universe (global feed)
- Contact lists (follows)
- Profiles
- Notifications
- Hashtags
- Threads
- Search results
- Algorithmic feeds (e.g., last notes per pubkey)
- Interactions: Post, reply, quote, and zap notes
- Media support: View and upload images
- Multiple accounts: Switch between multiple Nostr accounts
Getting Started
NoteDeck Columns is part of the larger NoteDeck ecosystem. To use it:
- Clone the NoteDeck repository
- Build the project with Cargo
- Run NoteDeck and select the Columns interface
See the DEVELOPER.md file for detailed setup instructions.
Architecture
NoteDeck Columns is built using:
- Rust: For performance and type safety
- egui: For the UI rendering
- nostrdb: For Nostr data storage and retrieval
- enostr: For Nostr protocol communication
The codebase is organized around the concept of timelines, views, and decks, with a column-based UI architecture.
