liquidex bf4d538651 add ping/pong between client and server
the purpose of this is to hopefully prevent nginx from reaping the connection, since there's data flowing through it every so often

liquidex 0d831698e2 add proper error and disconnect handling
error handling shows you the error and offers the ability to reload;
disconnect handling shows you that the page will reload in a few seconds.
it uses exponential backoff with some random sprinkled into it to prevent overwhelming the server once people's clients decide to reconnect.

liquidex be6a47ae13 user authentication through a secret token (NOT AUDITED FOR SECURITY. DO NOT RELY ON THIS CODE.)
it's probably okay, but it's incredibly easy to read localStorage from the frontend and get a hold of the secret
would be nice (would it?) to have more proper session tokens I guess but we're not doing that right now

I'm not entirely sure if generating the password on the server is legit like this, but it leads to an incredibly frictionless experience and I'd like to keep it. if possible.
I don't really see a difference compared to password managers generating passwords for you and showing them in plaintext
obviously actual passwords are stored within the manager which requires a master password, but like. do we really need that. the secret isn't shown to the user and it's very long.
too bad the browser secure storage API or whatever isn't ready yet

liquidex 2594afcc1b a more robust system for syncing chunks
as long as the server tells you there are more chunks, there are definitely more chunks.
just wait for them a bit.
