A Mobile Web App from scratch

You need ideas. I email myself with #ideas in the subject.
Start with HTML5 Mobile Boilerplate.
- Like starting a new presentation with a template.
- A solid baseline for mobile web apps.
- The comments explain best practices.
- Thank you to all the contributors.
Use the button CSS from Bootstrap for the icon buttons.
- Bootstrap is an excellent collection of user HTML5 user interface components.
- The CSS is built using the LESS dynamic stylesheet language and it's organized well.
- Thank you to all the contributors.
Add a textarea to the top of the screen to receive the icons when pressed.
Added JavaScript to insert icons into the textarea.
- "JavaScript: The Good Parts" is a great book to start learning JavaScript.
- Also read "Eloquent JavaScript"
- And the MDN documentation
- And learn jQuery. The Tuts+ "30 Days to Learn jQuery" video series is great.
Add iOS homescreen icons and startup images
- "Everything you always wanted to know about touch icons"
- Use the startup image to make it look like part of your UI has loaded.
Add a bookmark bubble to notify the user that the site is an installable web app.
Add a Cache Manifest to make it work offline.
Buy a domain name and web hosting or host your site with GitHub Pages.
Add measurements with Google Analytics.
Add Twitter, Facebook, and Google+ buttons to your site.
Automate your Help Desk workflow.
