Replicating Turbolinks behavior

With visit, Superglue will always wait for a response before a navigation transition. Turbolinks' behavior is to transition first if possible while waiting for the response. To replicate this behavior:

In your application_visit.js file:


import { urlToPageKey } from '@thoughtbot/superglue/utils/url'

const appVisit = (...args) => {

  const pageKey = urlToPageKey(args[0])
+ // attempt to navigate first
+ this.ref.current.navigateTo(pageKey)

  return store
    .dispatch(visit(...args))
    ....

This is different from restore strategy which controls what happens when the browser's history object pops.
