When will the much-vaunted new GUI make its appearance?

Dear LiveCode:
I have developed a number of apps for the web. The latest is a simple app to display the "Feels Like" temperature (heat index). After installing the latest version (DP-6) the "Feels Like" app displays the spinner and the "Downloading..." message. It never completes the download. It hangs.
I switched to DP-5 and it works as expected. With DP-5, the app downloads and functions normally.

@bobcole: Looking at the dp-5 version of the app it looks like you are using a custom html page - does your app work if you use the standard html page? If so, you'll need to update your custom page using the latest from dp-6 as a base. If that doesn't work then please email support@livecode.com including your stack if possible and we can take a look.

Mark:
I use DP-6 to generate the files which I left unabridged. I cleared my browser cache. I uploaded the new version (DP-6) to my web server.
I looked at the website on my Mac and the app appears and functions normally. Hurrah! Clearly they're something in my custom html that causes it to fail.
However, when I tried to look at the same website on my iPhone and iPad (browsers cleared), the DP-6 version's spinner appears and the "Downloading.." message turns into "All downloads complete." but then it hangs. No further progress. The spinner is still spinning, the app does not appear.
I do not understand why would it work on my Mac but not on an iOS device.

I can confirm what Bob says.
LC 10 DP6 web shows on iMac but not on iPad and iPhone.
No custom html file for me.I just renamed the html file to index.html

In all my Linux browsers, both Blink/Chromium based and Gecko/Firefox based, William's dp5 app loads and runs but the dp6 version fails to run after downloading.
I'm not expert at using the developer and debug tools in the browser but it looks like the font doesn't download. Could it be that desktop MacOS provides the font while iOS and my Linux machine does not and this is the difference?
"Uncaught (in promise) Font download failed: NetworkError: A network error occurred."
FWIW: the app at 'dp6.camelcaps.nl' doesn't run after download in my Android browser (Brave) but it works as expected in both Firefox and Edge under Windows 11.

Spot on!
I deleted the style sheet with font reference and now DP6 works/shows on iPad and iPhone.

The new version runs in my Linux and Android browsers, as well

@wsamples / @williamdesmet / @bobcole : Thanks for persevering and getting something to work - I've filed bug https://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=24327 for what I surmise to be the issue from your testing.
Essentially, the default web font mappings we provide by default (which only use local fonts on the device) is not broad enough as yet, and (more critically) failure to load a font makes the engine not get passed its initialization phase.
Note that you can customize which fonts your app uses by including a `web-fonts.txt` file in Copy Files - there are details about this in the User Guide in the Web part of the `Deploying your App` section.
