On April 16th, Nick Weaver (@nickweaver) and I gave a presentation at the Madison Web Design & Dev Meetup titled “Responsive Web Design:Â How the mobile web has changed the way we think and work.” We were pleased to bring such a cool topic to this meetup led by Ben Siegel, Principal at VersaStudio, LLC.
The presentation was an introduction to Responsive Web Design (RWD), a new approach to web development brought forward and popularized by Ethan Marcotte. We covered the benefits and challenges of RWD and the pros and cons of native vs web-based applications for mobile.
Below is a link to the presentation’s slideshow. Enjoy!
In her article Mobile UI performance considerations, Estelle Weyl addresses memory and battery considerations when developing web applications for mobile devices. From embedding CSS and JavaScript into your HTML file (GASP!!!) on first load (and storing the code using localStorage), to minding the DOM and what you CAN’T see in the viewport of a mobile phone, this article is full of great ideas on how to reduce loading and processing times on our beloved tiny devices. A must read.
