Please make this, shut up and take my money. 

 

 

A downloadable App will resolve the following issue

• Network based [timeout' violations causing webflow designer to LAG OUT
• Asset Manager is laggy when having dozens or hundreds of assets
• Page editing is laggy on more complex projects

SOLUTION

• ***** Optimize Webflow for Hardware utilization outside browser dependency.
• ***** Intuitive as Google Adwords Editor + Photoshop

Benefit so of a Native local app

• ****** Faster Load Times
• Better Utilization of RAM (takes much less ram than Chrome/Sifari version of Webflow)
• Better Utilization of CPU (better processor optimization to reduce designer lag)
• Better Utilization of GPU (render page and assets faster, special power user usecases) 
• Better Utilization of DISK (assets load faster, caching/temp becomes local)
• Better Utilization of NETWORK (Network IO based on user's personalized POST and SYNC settings)

A WebApp should be developed.

• Users download App to their local drive via Chrome Store (Chromebook), Windows 10 Store (Windows PC) or Apple Store.
• Users Launches Webflow App on native device (no more going to webflow.com)
• Webflow App Synchronized same exact functionality as Chrome webflow/designer webflow/editor and webflow/dashboard 
• All major webflow components are downloaded to local drive for faster loading. 
• 1-Click Update App now in settings for Windows Mac Chrome
• Designer Pitch-Zoom support on touch devices.

 

 

Must haves Webflow Native Desktop App.

Main APP 

• WEBFLOW APP SETTINGS
• - WEBFLOW Custom settings
• - - Low Power Mode (minimizes cpu load for users who want to save battery life, off by default)
• - - Low GPU Mode (disables any GPU acceleration, off by default)
• - - Cache/Temp Folder (Where on harddrive Webflow tamp/cache assets exist)
• ******- - Custom SYNC / POST Network Optimization Options
   
• Choose Your Login 
• - Choose Your Project
• - - Choose DESIGNER, EDITOR, ASSET MANAGER, OR PROJECT SETTINGS

 

DESIGNER

• Identical as Chrome Webflow designer
• *****Maximum Lag Optimization with DISK UTILIZATION, CPU UTILIZATION, GPU UTILIZATION, and NETWORK UTILIZATION
• Easy SYNC / POST

 

DESIGNER -> Preview Mode

• Preview mode allows multiple tabs
• Preview mode has Load as USER AGENT button (Chrome, Firefox, IE, Sifari, iOS, etc)

 

DESIGNER -> UTILIZATION

• CPU allows designer to run faster
• RAM take less ram than chrome native app
• GPU allows designs and assets to load faster
• DISK allows instant access to project assets (after sync)
• NETWORKING allows less dependency on networking to prevent timeout violations

 

EDITOR

• Special 'Editor Only' icon that can be shared with other peoples computers
• Identical Editor Experience as Browser

 

ASSET MANAGER

• Assets stored on local disk and server.
• Smart SYNC / POST - Active / Passive 

ASSET MANAGER -> Detects differences of DISK vs NETWORK

• Easy list that instantly pulls up
• *** Shows LOCAL image size / date vs SERVER image size / date with a chooser >>>> Makes super easy to swap out dozens or hundreds of assets at the same time without breaking any of them. (For example All images run through image file-size compression)
• ***** Search CSS for asset
• *****Search HTML for asset
• ***** Search JS for asset
• Asset Data Table > Filename | SizeKB | Filename Date | Uploaded Date | Extension (jpn/png/svg/gif/etc)
• ***** Asset Filtering (example 'Show Assets on HOMEPAGE only' 'Exclude Assets on HOMEPAGE only' etc...
• Rename asset file can only be done ONLY with sync HTML/CSS/JS references

 

Please use similar POST and SYNC protocol/experience as Google AdWords Editor.
