1161633 - Create bare bones app that represents theoretical lows for app startup perf

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia, defect)

Description

[Gareth Aye [:gaye] (back from PTO)]

The app should do the minimum that a prototypical gaia app would need to do, while emitting the various startup events.

(1) Load a css file.
(2) Load a javascript file.
(3) Add an element to the DOM.
(4) Start a web worker.
(5) Fetch a value from the web worker.
(6) Send the value to the main thread.
(7) Display the value in the element already in the DOM.

Other possible considerations:

- localization?
- gaia web component polyfill?
- loading building blocks?

Landed on master https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/commit/3e6fd1e0a478af2c95d09ce95c2c6de2de2fec14. I think there are still a few more things to do before this is "realistic". For instance, this isn't waiting for localization to be ready before rendering, but it's a good start.
