iPad Web App Development—Assure Smooth Infinite Scrolling
If you want to go for iPad Web App Development with bulky content and you want to give your users a stream, infinite swipe-able view you might have unprecedented problems to get such views so let's explore the way outs in brief. Unlike desktop iPad web app development is restricted with the limited memory and CPU power so when you are going to render very long list in HTML5 you might run with the risk of crashes. In case of native apps development you have IUTableViewController that allows you to build long, infinite scrolling lists, but in case of HTML5 we don't have such solution. Therefore, we have to take another route. Unfortunately iPad Safari have strict limits for images so you can take help of HTML5 Canvas element to draw images without indulging with memory issues, but this will end up with slow speed therefore you should consider another option and that is whenever an image is swipe sufficiently you should replace the “src” attribute of img tag with a very small image this way you will freed up the memory periodically which used in rendering, of course don't forget to avoid the introduction of empty image src attribute bug. When you will unload the images you won't reclaim enough memory to avoid any crash so you can start hiding individual pages of the stream through employing CSS setting for visibility property to hidden. This way you not only free up more memory but will experience faster rendering because here browsers do need to paint the invisible pages on the UI. This is the way to make iPad web app development efficient.
