Absolutely. I believe that that's the primary goal, to replace the current race condition between app's JS and the engine to firstPaint. > If the user has to see anything before the new 'please-draw-me' event, we'd > probably like to see the app's background painted with the primary theme > color, or some kind of splash-screen image. Anything but the signature 'I'm > a clunky old website' white flash :) That's a cool idea. I'd suggest that for Gaia we'd prefer not to move the app to foreground at all, or do some smart calculations to know that the app starts on average in 600ms, so start the 200ms transition animation after 400ms. But for web apps in the browser that would make a lot of sense. zb. _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
