Responsive web design for #mobile users? #85

Closed evanwolf closed 10 years ago

evanwolf commented 10 years ago

More than half of all users will be coming from mobile browsers. How well does the current page construction comply with responsive practices? Or offer a mobile version of the app?

migurski commented 10 years ago

The current repository does not offer any specific mobile/responsive features, though its simple design (generally one column of text) is trivially adaptable to narrow screens.

evanwolf commented 10 years ago

Migurski, it really performs poorly as a mobile web site. Usability sucks with poor completion rates, high user error rates, and very slow downloads from rich pages. May I suggest reopening this issue and bringing in designers to work over the front end to address these problems?
