Of course the webview has its own cache so requests for the same URI doesn’t necessarily hit the pipe every time. But it would be much nicer if I had a local cache I can control. Are there any good implementations I should look at that take care of the complexity this adds for me?
As an added, optional requirement it would be nice if I could add some of the pictures I know the app will need to the app bundle when I upload the app to the app store, so not all requests have to be made when the app is first started. (Also: How is this called?)
ionic-image-loader by @ihadeed sounds like what you need.
I haven’t tested it but the imageLoader.preload('http://path.to/image.jpg')
probably also works with local images from your app bundle.
