Developers usually always work with the same runtime and debug the same app. We can probably help the user by auto-selecting the latest runtime and try to connect to it, and in the case of Runtime Apps, auto select the latest app (package/hosted apps are already auto-selected).
Component: Developer Tools: User Stories → Developer Tools: WebIDE
We have bug 1055666 to focus on the "re-select last project if it's a runtime app" portion. Let's re-focus this to just the "auto-select last used runtime" step.
Summary: UX: connecting to a device and then an app should be faster → Auto-select and connect to last used runtime if available

Comment on attachment 8487327 [details] [diff] [review] Initial Attempt Review of attachment 8487327 [details] [diff] [review]: ----------------------------------------------------------------- I do think these bits would make more sense it webide.js instead of app-manager.js. I think of app-manager as the model object, with the current state of the apps and runtimes, and emits events when these things change. webide.js is more the view & controller object. It asks app-manager for the current state, tells it to perform actions and make changes, and listens for events from app-manager to hear when the state changes. So, overall it seems good, but let's move to webide.js. ::: browser/devtools/webide/modules/app-manager.js @@ +104,5 @@ > this.emit("app-manager-update", what, details); > + > + // Automatically reconnect to the previously runtime, > + // if available and has an ID > + if (what == "runtimelist" && this.selectedRuntime == null && Moving this to webide.js as a new method called after "runtimelist" seems good.

In webide.js, I'd suggest adding a new method that's called on the "runtime" event, and you'd store it then. Also, I think we should store the type of runtime along with the ID. In bug 916804, I added string type names to the runtimes. That would useful here if that patch ever lands...

Alex, I've added some comments above. If you don't have time for this anymore, let me know.

Part of patch already r+ by paul in bug 916804. Hopefully, this isn't the part of the patch that makes TBPL intermittently orange!! https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=c548de9085ff
Attached patch patch v2 (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
This patch depend on you work adding `type` on runtimes, so I just pulled that and submitted it to eventually land it if this patch lands before bug 916804. Otherwise I tried to address all the feedback comments and also provided a test.

Unfortunately, the usage of registerCleanupfunction fails... I have no idea why but very few tests are doing this and the only usage in webide uses synchronous calls. Here we have some async function to call. But the cleanup function doesn't seem to be called at all. Here is a new patch without cleanup function... https://tbpl.mozilla.org/?tree=Try&rev=d7fe90600344
