Hello all,

I have recorded the next phase of the implementation process for this
feature and uploaded a video to YouTube with further details.

YouTube Video: https://youtu.be/eiXnI8XGCJY

Key updates covered in Part 2:

  - Backend: Exposed REST APIs (getOrdersToPick, createPickingPicklist,
getPicklistDetails, and recordPick).
  - Design: Built a standalone React+Vite shell featuring an "Industrial
Dark" glassmorphic style.
  - Screens: Completed the Login (with developer bypass), Facility Select,
Order Queue (multi-select creation), and Active Picklist (sorted path
picking, progress bars, and persistence on refresh) screens.

This project aims to demonstrate how standalone applications can be built
on top of OFBiz using AI. The scope of the application and its features can
be further developed accordingly.
