Waters ChurchandClaude Opus 5 469db5bc60 Bring the checklist app under version control

The project has lived only as a folder on the Mac Studio and, briefly, as a
transfer tarball. This is the first commit: the Express server and its web
front end, the Capacitor iOS and Android wrappers, and the release and backup
scripts.

The repo is the source, not a backup of the machine. Left out on purpose, by
the .gitignore files that were already in the tree: node_modules, build output,
mobile/www (regenerated from server/public on every build), and server/data,
which holds the live checklists and belongs on the NAS rather than in git.

Every credential is excluded too — server/.env, the Play upload keystore and
its properties file, the App Store Connect key and ios-signing.config. The one
secret that was not in an ignored file was the NAS SSH password, hard-coded in
build-deploy.sh and grepped back out of it by backup-to-drive.sh. Both now read
it from the login keychain (service checklist-nas, account Christian), falling
back to NAS_PASS in the environment, so rotating it is one keychain entry
rather than a history rewrite.

cd recurring-checklist-app
```
Install dependencies:
```
npm install
```
Run the application:
```
npm start
```

Building for Windows Distribution

To create a Windows executable installer:

npm run build:win

This will create an installer in the dist folder that you can distribute to other machines. The installer will be named something like Recurring Checklist Setup 1.0.0.exe.

Data Storage

All checklist data is stored locally on your machine using electron-store. Data persists between application sessions and is stored in your user data directory.

Distribution

The built application can be easily copied to other Windows machines:

Build the installer using npm run build:win
Copy the installer file from the dist folder
Run the installer on each Windows machine where you want to use the app
Each installation will have its own independent data storage

Requirements

Windows 7 or later
Node.js (for development and building only)

Notes

The application checks for recurring items every minute
Recurring items reset based on the current date/time
Each machine will have its own separate checklist data
The app uses a dark theme similar to Planning Center for better visibility
