Mobile Web app design is complicated because there are hundreds of different
devices out there, each with their own capabilities and screen size. In this
book, I narrowed the range of devices to discuss by focusing on those with
a WebKit-based browser. However, this still leaves me with a huge range of
possibilities for inconsistencies and device-specific quirks that can wreck the
user experience of our app.
Fortunately, someone else (many people, actually) have already dealt with
the difficult problems of Mobile Web app compatibility, and some of them
have been brilliant and generous enough to document and publish the best
solutions they’ve found for various problems. One such effort to create
highly cross-platform compatible Mobile Web apps is the Mobile Boilerplate.
Created by Shi Chuan, Paul Irish, and Divya Manian, this set of files and documentation
provides a solid foundation for mobile developers to build upon.
In this section, you’ll create a Komodo Edit template that uses Mobile
Boilerplate.
