In the clientside diagram(s), you wouldn't.
You'd only include a highlevel package containing shared classes.

In the serverside(s), you don't include the client and only a highlevel package with those same shared classes.

You'd have a third set containing detailed diagrams of those shared classes.

That immediately forces you to think about the design of your application, cutting it up into distinct (reusable) components.

yes, they're different applications.
In the real world they'd be different projects or subprojects and should be treated as such.
And the interaction layer is a different project or subproject again.

They'll also have different usecases with quite different actors.
