// Create a "splash screen" image to display while the WebContentsView loads
const splashView = new ImageView()
const splashImage = nativeImage.createFromPath(path.join(__dirname, 'loading.png'))
splashView.setImage(splashImage)
win.setContentView(splashView)

const webContentsView = new WebContentsView()
webContentsView.webContents.once('did-finish-load', () => {
  // Now that the WebContentsView has loaded, swap out the "splash screen" ImageView
