Splash for appjs applications

Is it possible to show a splash before opening an appjs application? I need to show an image before opening the appjs application for 2 or 3 seconds and need to be closed and then need to open the application window

Solution

  • It is possible to open more than one window:-

    var splashWindow = app.createWindow({ 
   width  : 300,
   height : 300,
   icons  : __dirname + '/content/icons',
   resizable: false, 
   url: 'http://appjs/splash.htm'
});

    So maybe you can open this first window and then connect to servers or preload content and once you are ready you can then open the main application window:

    var window = app.createWindow({ ... });
