### 4. **Enhanced Service Worker**
**File**: `frontend/public/service-worker.js`

const authRequest = new Request(url, {
  credentials: 'include',
  headers: { 'Accept': 'audio/*' }
});
```

---

### 5. **Updated Navigation**
**Files**: 
- `frontend/src/App.tsx`
- `frontend/src/components/Sidebar.tsx`

#### New Route:
- `/offline` - Dedicated offline management page
- "PWA" badge on sidebar menu item
- Accessible to all authenticated users

---

## 🔒 Security Verification

### ✅ **All Security Checks Passed**

#### Backend Protection:
1. **Authentication Required**
   - All playlist endpoints require authentication
   - Service Worker respects authentication cookies

2. **User Isolation**
   ```python
   # All queries filter by owner
   playlists = Playlist.objects.filter(owner=request.user)
   ```

3. **Permission Classes**
   - `AdminWriteOnly` - All authenticated users can read/write their own data
   - Owner filtering enforced at queryset level

4. **No Route Conflicts**
   - `/api/playlist/` - List/create playlists
   - `/api/playlist/:id/` - Playlist details
   - `/api/playlist/:id/?include_items=true` - With items
   - `/api/audio/:id/download/` - Audio download endpoint

#### Frontend Protection:
1. **PWA Context** - Uses authenticated API calls
2. **IndexedDB Isolation** - User-specific data only
3. **Service Worker** - Respects CORS and authentication
4. **No Cross-User Access** - Each user sees only their playlists

---

## 📱 PWA-Focused UX Enhancements

### Mobile-First Design:
1. **Touch-Optimized Buttons**
   - Large tap targets (48px minimum)
   - Clear visual feedback
   - Disabled states for offline actions

2. **Visual Indicators**
   - Chip badges for status
   - Color-coded states (green=cached, yellow=offline, red=error)
   - Icons with semantic meaning

3. **Responsive Layout**
   - Cards scale on mobile
   - Stack controls vertically on small screens
   - Hide text labels on extra-small devices

4. **Progress Feedback**
   - Real-time caching progress
   - Snackbar notifications
   - Loading states

---

## 🎨 UI Components

### Color Scheme:
- **Success (Cached)**: Green `rgba(76, 175, 80, 0.1)`

- **Warning (Offline)**: Yellow `rgba(255, 193, 7, 0.1)`
- **Error**: Red for removal actions

### Icons Used:

## 💻 Developer Usage

### Cache a Playlist:
```typescript
import { usePWA } from '../context/PWAContext';
import { offlineStorage } from '../utils/offlineStorage';

const { cachePlaylist } = usePWA();

// Cache playlist
const audioUrls = playlist.items.map(i => 
  `/api/audio/${i.audio.youtube_id}/download/`
);

await cachePlaylist(playlist.playlist_id, audioUrls);

// Save metadata
await offlineStorage.savePlaylist({
  ...playlist,
  offline: true,
  lastSync: Date.now(),
});
```

### Check Offline Status:
```typescript
const cachedPlaylist = await offlineStorage.getPlaylist(id);
const isOffline = cachedPlaylist?.offline || false;
```

### Remove from Offline:
```typescript
const { removePlaylistCache } = usePWA();

await removePlaylistCache(playlist.playlist_id, audioUrls);
await offlineStorage.removePlaylist(playlist.id);
```
