    Shared dual-IdP OAuth infrastructure (Keycloak for local dev, AWS Cognito for staging/prod), consumed by both WhatsNextPlease and the HCC CRM platform.

React frontend hardcoded port 8080: changing the PORT env var disconnected frontend from backend silently.

Root causeVite requires VITE_ prefix; no bridge between Go’s root .env and the frontend build

program.go reads root .env, extracts PORT=, writes VITE_PORT to frontend/.env at generation time; app.tsx.tmpl uses import.meta.env.VITE_PORT.

- fetch('http://localhost:8080/')
+ fetch(`http://localhost:${import.meta.env.VITE_PORT}/`)
