    Description

      The autolayout script that runs on the documentation pages causes issues when viewing the documentation on a mobile device like an iPhone X.

      The auto layout code takes several seconds to resolve, and it executes anytime I click on any link, even for anchors on the same page. This makes the documentation incredibly unusable. The behaviour is much faster/unnoticeable on desktop.

      This seems like something unnecessary since the layout should be able to be handled with just CSS and HTML, without the need for javascript.

       

      Could this autolayout behaviour be disabled/removed? I think having a poor layout is better than sitting through this iterative autolayout every time a link is clicked.
