Testing Instructions

Prerequisites

  1. Dependencies installed:

    cd /workspace/PROJECTS/t2
    npm install

    # LM Studio → Start Server on port 1234

Run Development Server

npm run dev

Access at: http://localhost:5173

Test Scenarios

  2. Should redirect to /login
  3. Try Demo Mode button (instant access)
  4. Or enter credentials and click Login
  5. Should redirect to /ide (theia IDE tab)

2. AI Studio Tab

  1. Navigate to /ai-studio
  2. Select workflow mode (try "Parallel")
  3. Select 2-3 models
  4. Enter prompt: "Build a React button component"
  5. Click "Send" or press Cmd/Ctrl+Enter
  6. Expected: Mock responses appear in chat
  7. Expected: Preview panel shows generated code
  8. Toggle device sizes (Mobile/Tablet/Desktop)
