Conclusion

At this point, I hope the small idea of designing and building for mobile first has given you lots of big ideas for the web. Today’s mobile device is our true personal computer: always with us, connected to the network, and filled with new capabilities for getting things done, communicating with each other, and just killing some time. Starting with this personal and portable device in mind first allows us to:

• Take advantage of the enormous growth in mobile internet usage and find new ways for people to use our websites and applications.
• Embrace mobile constraints to focus and prioritize the services we’re designing and building.
• Use mobile capabilities to innovate the complete customer experience.
• Take what we know about designing for the web and start thinking differently about mobile organization, actions, inputs, and layout.
