Steps to reproduce:

Step 1: Click on any app on the front page or on the fireplace logo on the header.


Actual results:

The link get outlined(by default behavior of mozilla for links that do not loads a whole new page), looks quite weired. :p


Expected results:

The links after clicking should remain clean and should not show that outline.

We can add this to resolve:
z.body.on("click", function(e){
    if (e.target.nodeName == "A") { 
        e.target.blur();
    }
});

This is how the web works. The outline serves accessibility purposes as well as functional ones.

Then how about doing it in more better way, say heartbeat animation. Whenever an app is clicked, it starts beating(opacity:0 to 1, back and fro)
