description
Presented at Float Mobile eLearning Symposium, at Chicago TechWeek, on 25 July 2012. Buzzwords and trends in design, development and process hold much weight in our industries, and foster much arguing and staking out of opposite positions. But more of these are in fundamental agreement than is generally acknowledged, and merging approaches, much like collaborating with a varied team, can yield the most useful results.Steven will discuss the underlying principles of responsive & fluid design, progressive enhancement, adaptive design, device detection, multi-platform design, cross-platform development processes, and mobile device capabilities. He will present one possible unifying theory of how you can not just develop the shiniest iOS app, but design the best experience for your users, on every screen and with every interaction.
