Hello friends, Here is the design page for Responsive Skin implementation [1]. Included: Goal, Approach, Tentative Timeline, Mock Ups. Early questions for the current design:
1. Specific support for non-javascript capable browser? I feel like it is not necessarily since browser which can not support javascript will fall back by itself. More over, it would not be capable of carrying out media-queries required for responsive design and some XWIKI features (such as live tables?) anyway. 2. Is the community ok with trying to use "true (html)" drop downs / forms in order to fully utilize functions built in to phone/tablets [3]? 3. Pressable Links: should they be bigger on mobile to help facilitate touching on words, or would it be better to use a "background" to create a "touch area"? Both are in the phone mock up [3]. Former demonstrated in quicklinks, latter in the "Spaces" section.
