Hi. Is there any way to add a splash screen that shows as soon as the app is launched? It’s doable with JS Electron apps but I’m not sure if it’s current supported with NativePHP.
NativePHP apps sometimes take a while to open, especially on first launch. The UX without a splash screen isn’t great because it seems like the app just failed to launch.

I think he meant for desktop. At least the post is tagged with "desktop"

Hey Raj 👋 there is no way to do this right now
Are you building for windows? You might be able to get more performance if your app is signed. Windows defender is known to cause slowdowns
You can implement something yourself on the client side, but this requires the webview to load initially. If the slowdown you experience is on the initial load that would cause you to have to wait for the splash to appear, which defeats the purpose
For my apps (mac & Linux) it loads pretty quick, so the above solution works well. But I suspect your long load times might be a windows thing. Can you confirm?

Hey mate 👋 Yeah I haven't signed the app yet since it's still in development. Just tested with Defender disabled and it loaded a lot faster - thanks! It's probably fine without a splash screen now.
