PinWan on March 7, the official development document of wechat applet has recently launched a new function. Starting from the basic library 2.20.1, it will support “half screen applet”, which is still in the internal test stage.

According to the document definition, this function is “when the applet needs to open another applet for users to perform shortcut operations, the applet to be opened can be quickly pulled up in the form of half screen.”

At present, when users open another wechat applet through wechat applet, they will jump in the way of opening a new interface. In the internal test function, when the developer configures it, it can be pulled up from the bottom and displayed in the form of cards.

During the internal test, each applet can open up to two half screen applets, and the developer needs to configure the app globally The embeddedappidlist field of JSON declares the applet that needs to be opened in half screen form. If it is not configured, it will be degraded to ordinary applet and jump to applet.

In addition, the use process has the following restrictions. If it does not meet the requirements, it will be downgraded to ordinary applet and jump to applet:

The half screen applet cannot be opened under the horizontal screen, and the small game jump target applet cannot be opened. The applet must meet the following categories:

.

In addition, starting from the basic library 2.11.3, share the supporting applet to the circle of friends. When users open the shared applet page in the circle of friends, they will not really open the applet, but enter a “applet single page mode” page, which is similar to the display method of the article.
