Tom, you can design a static page index.html that will give your users enough info to want to wait for the dynamic pages to load and replace it.
Advanced JSers often put the script tag at the end of the body for exactly your scenario. Code splitting may help with your initial app load delay. I think you need to profile your scenario in depth to understand where and what to optimize. -- Andy stevko On Jul 14, 2014 8:34 PM, "Tom" <[email protected]> wrote: > I deployed my app and I got this issue. > > The first time the app got loaded, it will show a blank white page for 5-7 > second which is pretty long for a good user-experience.
