feat(home): surface latest board posts on Home (Loop 1 UX polish)#293
Merged
Conversation
The home boards peek was a hardcoded empty state (placeholder until the boards backend landed). Now that #205 is in v2, surface the 1-2 latest posts from the user's center board as feed-style cards, so Home reflects real activity instead of looking dead on first run. Falls back to the existing empty state when there are no posts. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

The first-run overview (#294) gated on `boardPeek.length === 0`, but the overview's "Latest on your board" peek renders only when posts exist — so the peek could never show: the moment a post existed, isNewUser flipped false and the overview disappeared. Base "new user" on discovery state instead: hasn't joined an event yet (`signedUpEvents.length === 0`), independent of posts. Now a member who has joined no events still sees the tour + their center + a live peek of their board's activity, and it self-resolves once they RSVP. Returning members with joined events keep the normal home (which carries its own #293 boards peek). Verified on web: seeded a post on the local center board and confirmed the peek renders inside the overview. frontend tests: 187 pass.

What
Home's "Latest on your boards" was a hardcoded empty state (a placeholder left until the boards backend shipped). Now wired to fetch the 1-2 latest posts from the user's center board and render them as feed-style cards (
BoardPostCardwith source label), tapping through to the Feed. Falls back to the existing empty state when there are genuinely no posts.Why
Home looked dead on first run even when the user had real board activity (the Feed showed posts Home claimed didn't exist). Surfacing live conversation on Home is a first-run + return-engagement win.
Verified
npm run test:frontend→ 187 passing.Part of the UX-polish sprint (Loop 1).
