Sync of reactjs app screen for multiple browser windows - reactjs

Hi if I have our same reactjs screen opened on two separate browser windows, how do make sure they are always in sync (i.e., changes on one will reflect on the other)? It seems that redux does not help here?

updating Reactjs PWA without closing it

I have created an app with ReactJS and now I want to make it a progressive web app. I have seen many tutorials and understood how to do it. But I feel there is one problem that, if the UI of the app is updated then the user needs to close the app(smartphone) or browser tab(desktop) in order to get it updated. This is fine for a smartphone but when opened in a desktop some users might keep the website open in a tab and will never see the updated contents. I read that this not possible because updating this way might break some UI components and hence not allowed.
Is there a way to achieve this without the user needing to close the tab and reopen it?

Flutter How to preserve the file created through getApplicationDocumentsDirectory() on iPhone?

I made an app for which I store input data in a file (using getApplicationDocumentsDirectory()), everything works fine, except on the physical iPhone where I cannot access the data again if I quit the running app (by swiping the app after having pressed the iPhone button). Also when I reinstall the app from my code the directory changes each time (for the material iPhone). I would appreciate any help to find a solution, I'm just wondering wether I must save the dir.path using key:value.

How to keep iOS native call UI after answering the call with CallKit

I am trying to achieve same results that can be seen on 29:52 second of Enhancing VoIP Apps with CallKit - WWDC 2016.
In that video it shows that after answering call the buttons are moved and changed by animation, and the screen stays in native in-call UI.
I built the Speakerbox and tried the "Simulate Incoming Call" function, but as soon as the call is answered by answer call button (the same action that is shown on video), the native call screen disappears and the application screen is shown with active calls shown in the list (which is different from what is shown in WWDC video):
Though there is a native call UI screen for very short time during transition from Incoming Call native UI to the app, but I can't find how to force it to stay on that screen.
Debugging the Speakerbox app there is no any delegate method called until all native screens are disappeared and the app is already opened.
I have tested receiving incoming call when the screen is locked, in that case the native UI is shown:
I would like to achieve same result on non locked phone.
Simply you can't keep native UI after accept incoming call, at least in iOS 10, maybe in iOS 11 Apple give a way to keep native UI.
If you lock the phone and then receive an incoming call, you will have similar experience to what you saw on WWDC. There is no a way to change this behavior in iOS 10.

Ionic content shows up only after clicking on SideMenu

I have an ionic App which was working fine but now It is showing little weird behaviour, When I run the app it does not show the data at first but when I click on side menu once or twice then it loads and shows the data. I have an nodejs api from which the data comes to my app and the same api has been put in aws api gateway, I noticed this behaviour since I implemented aws sdk for binding data in my APP.
What can be the root cause for the same?
I can share the code but I am not sure where the issue is whether in controllers or views?
I solved it using Ionic Loader as the reponse was taking long time. My side menu was not getting initialized with the same time as other views hence views were not rendering without sidemenu being rendered, The idea is to show a loader on every response and hide it when it's a success, so it will render the views successfully.
Hope it helps.

Populating data in Silverlight App before its sent to he browser

I have a Silverlight App which gets its data from a database. My Silverlight app (running in the browser) retrieves the data through a web service. Pretty standard setup.
But there is some data which has to be there all the time or the App is in an invalid state - think data to fill drop downs etc. So I need this data to be "pre-loaded" into the App before it's sent down to the client so that it's never in an invalid state. Today I load this data via a web service call when my first page is initialized which can some times take a few seconds - during that time my App is in an invalid state.
Is there a way to populate data (from a backend database) in my Silverlight App before it's sent to the browser?
It is valid for an app to start and not be ready to use for a while, so long as the user cannot interact with it (or see the broken bits:))
Better to ensure your app has a splash screen/login page etc that displays until such time as the required resources are loaded. Once loaded you can set an app state to then show the main screen.
I had the same problem with a website that loaded the menu items via a service (as the text was data driven). Wound up running a progress spinner over the top (with a full-screen background).
I don't think you can. The application runtime occurs on the client's machine. I would suggest putting up a loading dialog while you bring those items down from the database.
What HiTech Magic said. Best practice for this is to use a splash screen or login page. You can also have your buttons (and interaction) disabled by default, and after the data is loaded, enable the UI. I would go with the spash screen though..
