UX: No real progress indicator for transcription dependency installation #12

Description

@daschinmoy21

Severity: Medium

Installing transcription dependencies (whisper/faster-whisper) can take minutes. The Settings UI only shows a raw log dump with read_install_log polling — no progress bar, no step indicator, and no clear success/failure state management. Users have no idea how far along the install is.

Affected Files

  • src/components/Settings.tsx (~line 168)

Suggested Fix

Add a proper progress bar or stepped progress indicator. Parse the install log for key milestones (downloading, extracting, installing) and show percentage/step completion.
