Dynamic Splash Screen

Ionic version: (check one with “x”) [ ] 1.x (For Ionic 1.x issues, please use https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-v1) [ ] 2.x [x] 3.x

Current behavior: Splash Screen is nothing but a static image reliant on pre-generation by ionic cordova resources.

Expected behavior: Allow some sort of mechanism to programatically customize the splash screen (e.g. text overlays, version number, copyright, etc.) without having to modify them pre-build with an image editor.

Ionic info: (run ionic info from a terminal/cmd prompt and paste output below):

Hello! Thank you for the feature request. I’m going to move this issue over to our internal list of feature requests for evaluation. As @AmitMY points out, this is more closely related to Cordova. However it may also serve as a catalyst for other ideas such as a build script that generates the resource from a template at build time, etc.

We are continually prioritizing all requests that we receive with outstanding issues. We are extremely grateful for your feedback, but it may not always be our next priority. I’ll copy the issue back to this repository if have begun implementation. Thanks!

The link isn’t dead, it just points to a private repo. Once Ionic v4 is released there will be an improved process for feature requests that will allow for more public comment. This one, however, is not Ionic related. It is something that would need to be handled by Cordova, Capacitor, or some other such thing.
