Hi Ankit, Here is the slide for how window management works in FxOS[1]
And what you are trying to do is possible (in advance you know that it’s for webapps), but please note current win mgmt is for mobile devices; that is to say, it is single window only. For desktop environment, it’s not difficult to support multiple windows if we changed something in appWindow & layoutManager. Here is my old branch[2] for multiple windows support, but it had been a long time I didn’t rebase it - 10 months ago! Screenshot is here[3] [1] https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1nx9k5Gdetnt7dqoX2iehfDXeM7H3be3dMnMYAwZjzRY/edit?usp=sharing <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1nx9k5Gdetnt7dqoX2iehfDXeM7H3be3dMnMYAwZjzRY/edit?usp=sharing> [2] https://github.com/alivedise/gaia/tree/multi-window-based-on-961800 <https://github.com/alivedise/gaia/tree/multi-window-based-on-961800> [3] http://i.imgur.com/sRgB7Sz.jpg <http://i.imgur.com/sRgB7Sz.jpg> Hope this helps. > Ankit ladhania <[email protected]> 於 2014年12月7日 上午7:07 寫道： > > I was thinking of using building a desktop environment that was build using > HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
