Description
I'm a package maintainer on Nixpkgs and I'm in the process of adding this package to our package collection.
The issue is that our build system needs to have a stable hash for files fetched from the internet, but the code-generation doesn't look to be reproducible, e.g. the localisation data may change.
AFAICT the graphql schema and tolgee localisation data is currently fetched from api.ficsit.app. Unfortunately, this means that fetching the data will always yield the latest version of the translations/graphql stuff.
Knowing this, I would ask that you consider also publishing the contents of frontend/src/lib/generated so that we can build the application in a reproducible way.
Another solution would be to allow fetching a specific revision of the data from the API, however that sounds more difficult than the method above.

Research direction
Start by examining the generation process for frontend/src/lib/generated and the fetches from api.ficsit.app for the graphql schema and tolgee localisation data. Determine how the generated contents could be published for reproducible builds; done means the application can build without fetching mutable latest data.
