I'm replacing $http with Fetch API and got replaced $q with Promise API. Because of that, Angular didn't run digest cycles anymore, thus UI didn't render. To solve this problem I tried Zone.js and that seems to solve our problems partially. Unfortunately its API completely changed in 0.6 so we're using legacy 0.5.15.

Now to the actual problem.

When refreshing the page Angular configs and bootstraps the application like expected. In this phase I'm initializing the Zone and decorating the $rootScope.apply with the Zone and $rootScope.$digest(). Now when I transition between states/routes (with ui-router) everything works as expected, but when full refreshing there's a race condition and the zone/digest doesn't run correctly. I'm not sure how to fix it.

I have the following code in a angular.run() block:

console.log('Zone setup begin');
const scopePrototype = $rootScope.constructor.prototype;
const originalApply = scopePrototype.$apply;
const zoneOptions = {
    afterTask: function afterTask() {
        try {
            $rootScope.$digest();
        } catch (e) {
            $exceptionHandler(e);
            throw e;
        }
    }
};

scopePrototype.$apply = function $applyFn() : void {
    const scope = this;
    const applyArgs = arguments;

    window.zone.fork(zoneOptions).run(() => {
        originalApply.apply(scope, applyArgs);
        console.log('Zone + $digest run!');
    });
};
console.log('Zone setup end');

Above you can see that I log to the console when the Zone initialization begins, when it ends and when it's run (+ Angular digest cycle). In my controller where I fetch the data via Fetch API I've added a console.log('Data fetched!'); so I know when the data has been fetched.

Now the output in console:

State transition with ui-router (works perfectly)

Notice that the digest is run in the end.

Zone setup begin
Zone setup end
Zone + $digest run!
Zone + $digest run!
Zone + $digest run!
Zone + $digest run!
Data fetched!
Zone + $digest run!

Full refresh on state/route (doesn't run in the end)

Zone setup begin
Zone setup end
Zone + $digest run!
Zone + $digest run!
Zone + $digest run!
Zone + $digest run!
Data fetched!

As you can see the Zone/digest doesn't run after the data is fetched, which is why the data and UI isn't rendered on the page.

Convert the ES6 promises created by the fetch API to AngularJS $q promises with $q.when.

Use `$q.when` to convert ES6 promises to AngularJS promises¹

AngularJS modifies the normal JavaScript flow by providing its own event processing loop. This splits the JavaScript into classical and AngularJS execution context. Only operations which are applied in the AngularJS execution context will benefit from AngularJS data-binding, exception handling, property watching, etc...² Since the promise comes from outside the AngularJS framework, the framework is unaware of changes to the model and does not update the DOM.

Use $q.when to convert the external promise to an Angular framework promise:

var myRequest = new Request('flowers.jpg');

$q.when(fetch(myRequest)).then(function(response) {
    //code here
})

Use $q Service promises that are properly integrated with the AngularJS framework and its digest cycle.

$q.when

Wraps an object that might be a value or a (3rd party) then-able promise into a $q promise. This is useful when you are dealing with an object that might or might not be a promise, or if the promise comes from a source that can't be trusted.
