Providing dynamic web content without flicker

A method comprising:

• identifying a plurality of action items associated with rendering digital content within visual elements of a webpage based on a web document received via a server device;
• analyzing the plurality of action items to identify a set of action items associated with rendering dynamic digital content corresponding to a dynamic visual element;
• in response to identifying the set of action items associated with rendering the dynamic digital content, temporarily prohibiting display of the dynamic visual element by hiding the dynamic visual element until performing the set of action items associated with rendering the dynamic digital content corresponding to the dynamic visual element is complete;
• generating, from a dependency graph comprising the set of action items, an action queue comprising a first subset of independent action items that, when completed, updates to a second subset of independent action items;
• and
• in response to completing at least the second subset of independent action items of the set of action items according to the dependency graph, revealing the dynamic visual element by providing, via a display device, the dynamic visual element with the dynamic digital content for display within the webpage without previously displaying default digital content that comprises renderable visual content.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed by at least one processor, cause a computer system to:

• receive, via a server device, a web document comprising action items for rendering a webpage with visual elements;
• prior to performing the action items for rendering the webpage:
• analyze the web document to identify a plurality of action items associated with rendering dynamic digital content corresponding to a dynamic visual element of the webpage, wherein the dynamic visual element corresponds to default digital content that comprises renderable visual content;
• and
• generate, from a dependency graph comprising a set of action items, an action queue comprising a first subset of independent action items that, when completed, updates to a second subset of independent action items reflecting dependencies for the plurality of action items by determining that a second action item of the plurality of action items depends from a first action item of the plurality of action items;
• while performing the plurality of action items, including the first subset of independent action items prior to the second subset of independent action items in accordance with the dependency graph, temporarily prohibit display of the dynamic visual element;
• and
• in response to completing at least the second subset of independent action items of the plurality of action items in accordance with the dependency graph, provide the dynamic visual element of the webpage with the dynamic digital content for display without previously displaying the default digital content that comprises the renderable visual content.
