Applications written for the modern web are being consumed not just on desktop browsers, but also on a myriad of other devices... even watches and glasses. If you design your application with a pc screen in mind, at worst you're either cutting your userbase in half or setting yourself up for an expensive redesign. In this talk I'll introduce you to some modern web design constructs, and the technologies that bring them to life. Learn how to create apps that work just as well on phone, mobile and desktop with no extra effort, and without restrictive layout frameworks. Who knows... you may even even see things that begin to rival native apps!

Notes de l'éditeur
- Where are all the mobile-friendly web apps?
- Above 1080p, there is simply so much screenspace that most apps don't even attempt to design for it, they simply impose some form of fixed width. Personally, I rarely have a browser window full screen on my home monitor. Options include – 50% property sheets flow layouts creative design inc proper floating Mobile friendly – often companies don't even bother at all and instead put up offensive notices! Frameworks lead to frustrating half-assed attempts at mobile friendlyness that are difficult to maintain and control
