alexei.dolgolyov 2240471b67 Add demo mode: virtual hardware sandbox for testing without real devices
Demo mode provides a complete sandbox environment with:
- Virtual capture engine (radial rainbow test pattern on 3 displays)
- Virtual audio engine (synthetic music-like audio on 2 devices)
- Virtual LED device provider (strip/60, matrix/256, ring/24 LEDs)
- Isolated data directory (data/demo/) with auto-seeded sample entities
- Dedicated config (config/demo_config.yaml) with pre-configured API key
- Frontend indicator (DEMO badge + dismissible banner)
- Engine filtering (only demo engines visible in demo mode)
- Separate entry point: python -m wled_controller.demo (port 8081)

# Phase 5: Frontend Demo Indicator & Sandbox UX
**Status:** ⬜ Not Started
**Parent plan:** [PLAN.md](./PLAN.md)
**Domain:** fullstack
## Objective
Add visual indicators in the frontend that clearly communicate demo mode status to the user, including a badge, dismissible banner, and engine labeling.
## Tasks
- [ ] Task 1: Add `demo_mode` field to system info API response schema (if not already done in Phase 1)
- [ ] Task 2: In frontend initialization (`app.ts` or `state.ts`), fetch system info and store `demoMode` in app state
- [ ] Task 3: Add `<span class="demo-badge" id="demo-badge" style="display:none">DEMO</span>` next to app title in `index.html` header
- [ ] Task 4: CSS for `.demo-badge`: amber/yellow pill shape, subtle pulse animation, clearly visible but not distracting
- [ ] Task 5: On app load, if `demoMode` is true: show badge, set `document.body.dataset.demo = 'true'`
- [ ] Task 6: Add a dismissible demo banner at the top of the page: "You're in demo mode — all devices and data are virtual. No real hardware is used." with a dismiss (×) button. Store dismissal in localStorage.
- [ ] Task 7: Add i18n keys for demo badge and banner text in `en.json`, `ru.json`, `zh.json`
- [ ] Task 8: In engine/display dropdowns, demo engines should display with "Demo: " prefix for clarity
## Files to Modify/Create
- `server/src/wled_controller/templates/index.html` — Demo badge + banner HTML
- `server/src/wled_controller/static/css/app.css` — Demo badge + banner styles
- `server/src/wled_controller/static/js/app.ts` — Demo mode detection and UI toggle
- `server/src/wled_controller/static/js/core/state.ts` — Store demo mode flag
- `server/src/wled_controller/static/locales/en.json` — i18n keys
- `server/src/wled_controller/static/locales/ru.json` — i18n keys
- `server/src/wled_controller/static/locales/zh.json` — i18n keys
## Acceptance Criteria
- Demo badge visible next to "LED Grab" title when in demo mode
- Demo badge hidden when not in demo mode
- Banner appears on first demo visit, can be dismissed, stays dismissed across refreshes
- Engine dropdowns clearly label demo engines
- All text is localized
## Notes
- Badge should use `--warning-color` or a custom amber for the pill
- Banner should be a thin strip, not intrusive
- `localStorage` key: `demo-banner-dismissed`
## Review Checklist
