The announcement mentions in passing a client-server model that allows the UI to handle things like touch interaction without blocking on app code.
Can anyone elaborate on how this actually works? I would expect the UI rendering and Javascript execution to be all happening in one WebKit process. I would be excited to learn if the webOS team has come up with something I don't know about here.
- unwiredben 14y agoSince version 2, webOS has supported application-bundled node.js services. An application can spin up those service processes and have them handle communications with external servers and doing data processing, with communication handled over the Luna Service Bus, a on-device transport that allows both simple request-response or subscriptions for JSON-formatted data.
