Nariman JelvehandClaude Opus 5.5 e43726ef20 refactor: keep folder sort and layout in puter.kv, drop /set_sort_by and /set_layout
Explorer saved each folder's sort and layout through POST /set_sort_by and
/set_layout, which wrote them onto the folder's fsentries row. stat only
returns `layout`, so a saved sort was never read back.

The GUI now keeps them in the user's key-value store, one key per folder
uid (`folder_view:<uid>` holding `{ sort_by, sort_order, layout }`), via
helpers/folderViewPrefs.js. A change to one preference keeps the others.
A folder with nothing stored falls back to the layout its fsentry still
carries, then to the defaults, so existing layouts carry over.

refresh_item_container reads the folder's view after stat and re-sorts
items that went in under the previous sort; a view for a folder the
window has left is ignored. update_window_path no longer applies sort and
layout itself, since the refresh it starts does.

With no callers left, DesktopController and its two routes are removed.
The fsentries columns and stat's `layout` field stay.

Getting Started

💻 Local Development

git clone https://github.com/HeyPuter/puter
cd puter
npm install
npm start

→ This should launch Puter at http://puter.localhost:4100

To run this checkout with Docker, follow Building from source. Create a local docker-compose.override.yml to select the local build; keeping these settings out of docker-compose.yml avoids conflicts when pulling updates and keeps local configuration out of pull requests.
