Admin Panel Release Notes: Electron V2

This release marks a significant milestone: the full migration of the Admin Panel from Flutter to a high-performance Electron + React desktop application, accompanied by a complete premium visual overhaul.

🚀 Key Highlights

💻 Platform Migration

• Electron Architecture: Transitioned from Flutter to a modern Electron desktop environment powered by Vite and React.
• Improved Performance: Leveraged native rendering and Turbopack for near-instant build and reload speeds.
• Enhanced Routing: Implemented HashRouter to ensure seamless navigation within the Electron file protocol.

🎨 Premium Design System (Glassmorphism)

• Unified Aesthetic: Implemented a "Glassmorphism" design language with backdrop-blur effects and 3xl rounded glass containers.
• Dynamic Feedback:
  • ErrorState: Replaced raw errors with beautiful, context-aware error components (Unauthorized vs. General Errors).
  • EmptyState: Redesigned empty data views with premium icons and animations.
• Enhanced Navigation:
  • Added active tab highlighting with gradient accent bars.
  • Updated sidebar with the official CodeWithWest logo and branding.

🔐 Security & Technical Refinement

🔧 Internal Fixes & Polishing
