Issues with Session Expired and Dev Experience Overall

Since the last update the development experience in anvil has significantly decreased for us.
The issues happen mainly for our main application (large repo) so i assume it has to do something with the code size. (Not sure if we are the only one)

Anyway, these are the main issues we encounter:

  • Klicking the reload in new tab button does not display the latest version
  • Session expired appears much more frequent that before and sometimes locks into an endless session expired loop. Only hard refreh allows yout to escape.
  • The new editor is significantly slower when a lot of custom compontes are placed into a form.

I know that there is nothing more frustrating than users complaining about the new version, after hard work that has been put into developing the version itself. I’ve been / am there. Still it has made the anvil experience much less awesome for us.

I would invite someone fom the anvil team to join our project, kick of a branch and I would expect them to be able to reproduce most of the issues. Just reach out and I will be happy to assist.

Thanks, Mark

I’m guessing this is related:

Agree with Mark and plus I wish to see something like Doc-sting in Anvil IDE
And when you save edited code on Anvil editor and then open web page saved code is not working immediately
