About this Presentation
As the lead UI developer for Office Depot I worked with Java developers to bring our mobile site to a “Best in Class” status, gaining a 300% improvement in speed. In this presentation I'll talk about how to practically apply HTML5 and CSS3 in the mobile web environment to achieve maximum performance and speed.
This discussion includes how to develop for varying widths, how to use CSS3 to keep images small, how to deal with proxied browsers, how to leverage APIs and how to use HTML5 for responsive design and faster loads. I also discuss how to apply Javascript and the pros and cons of various libraries.
