Abstract:

Using a badly-designed web page that still is displayed correctly on most desktop browsers:

• Show that it doesn't work on most mobile browsers
• Introduce the mobileOK checker as a way to know what needs to be improved and why
• Fix the web page
• Show that the resulting page now works in both worlds

The message:

• Mobile Best Practices are not constraints
• No need to know Mobile Web Best Practices 1.0 doc by heart to start using it, the mobileOK checker is here to help
• Think Mobile even if that's not your initial target
