Maximum Size for Client code?

[CyCy]

Hi Anvil Devs!

I have some client code which is growing ever bigger in size… Is there a maximum which I may hit at some point and should push more to the server? Are there upper limits as well for server code functions?

Thanks and sorry if this is a dumb questions!

I don’t think there is an upper limit. But the more code you add, the slower your app loads initally. So it’s always a good idea to limit your codebase. Try to reuse functions and components as much as you can

On the server side also, the amount of code shouldn’t have any noticeable impact. But any important logic should be moved there anyway

You can also have a look at minification

Serve Minified Assets

Came up with my own temporary solution for this. I created a simple python file that does the job of automatically cloning and pushing your code after minifying it. Your master branch will remain as it is and a new branch called minified_code will be created having the minified code. You can test the minified version and publish it if everything works well. All your python code as well as html,css and javascript files will be minified to make your app load faster and also difficult for others …

My largest app has approx. 0.9 million bytes of Client-side code,
