- fbouvier 2y agoYes, argentic workflows are one of our use cases for Lightpanda. We skip the graphical rendering of the web page for instant startup, fast execution and low resources usage.
- infogulch 2y agoCan skipping rendering affect website behavior? What happens when JS tries to get layout/color information? How often does this break a website?
- fabrice_d 2y agoThey skip rendering but maybe don't skip layout and style computation?
- porridgeraisin 2y agoDoes it save much resources at all then? Id think that style computation and layouting takes a large chunk of the total resources used.
