Login buttons load slow on Teach #257

Open iamjessklein opened 9 years ago

It took about 30 seconds before the Log In | Signup buttons loaded in the upper left hand corner of the page. It looked as though nothing was loading while I waited. This might be a good opportunity to provide the user with some feedback.

I don't think this is directly a bug on id.webmaker.org @iamjessklein. It could be teach-api bug or just how teach site doing the call to id.wb.org I'm not sure.

I believe this was because teach-api.herokuapp.com is running on a free 1x web dyno that was asleep, and you logging into teach woke it up. This won't generally be the case in production.

That said, if the user's internet is slow, a similar effect will happen. I assume that while the buttons were loading, the area looked as described in https://github.com/mozilla/teach.webmaker.org/pull/626:

That is the feedback :) We could potentially add something akin to Font Awesome animations to add a throbber/spinner effect, but aside from that or changing the text, there isn't much we can do pre-v1.
