Hello, I am in the process of creating a slideshow/gallery of 5 'panes', each of which will have some interactive content with hover/click behaviour and hidden/animated sections of content that can be accessed and manipulated. Currently, the gallery is pulling in each 'pane' from a json file. It is randomizing the starting pane though, and I would like to optimize the loading of the json file such that the variable that is being set to determine the starting pane determines which part of the json file is loaded first.
Im assuming its pretty easy to load a particular portion of a json file first before the others, though I have yet to try and implement this. I am more interested in best practices/performance boosts in relation to loading the different parts of the json file. I imagine a scenario in which a loading icon is visible until the entirety of each pane is loaded. Does anyone have input as to what I should take into consideration in terms of making sure I am loading the 5 'panes' from the json file in order of appearance on the page and not in the json file? Thanks,
