Meta: roadmap and how to pick something up

[Realmullens]

Welcome! Quick orientation for anyone who wants to contribute:

• Easiest entries: issues labeled good first issue — self-contained, mostly 1–2 files.
• Most wanted: Docker deployment (One-command deployment: Dockerfile + docker-compose #1) and the CI e2e smoke test (CI: end-to-end smoke test with fake media devices #4).
• Bigger adventures: storage/queue abstraction (S3-compatible storage backend (keep local-disk as default) #2, Pluggable job queue for ffmpeg/transcription work #3), device switching (Allow switching camera/microphone while recording #5), editor layouts (Editor: layout switching at cut points (speaker focus vs. grid) #9).

Ground rules live in CONTRIBUTING.md — the short version: pnpm dev gets you a full studio on :4100/:4110 with zero config, typecheck must pass, and anything touching the recording path has to keep chunks-to-IndexedDB-before-upload and idempotent resumable uploads intact. Exercise your change in a real browser (Chromium's --use-fake-device-for-media-stream works great) and say what you did in the PR.
