Question

Swap overlay more memory-efficient than Navigate?


Fabrice

Quite often I have to build prototypes that can be large but that mostly involve going from screen to screen (basic nav).

When a flow just needs to go from screen to screen, without any specific transition effect or need for a managed Back navigation, it feels like Swap overlay and Navigate are quite interchangeable (you won’t notice the difference in the result).

I wonder in that case if I should favor Swap overlay, since intuitively, Figma will not have to remember the navigation history. Is that true? Do we gain performance by using Swap instead of Navigate?

Thanks!
