Mobile Web @ W3C (original) (raw)

Combining the power of the Web with the strengths of mobiles devices.

W3C’s mission includes ensuring that the Web be available on as many kind of devices as possible. With the surge of powerful mobile devices in the past few years, the role of the Web as a platform for content, applications and services on these devices is increasingly important.

W3C accompanies this growth with its work in the following areas:

• mobile Web applications can take full advantage of the technical progress in the Open Web Platform, including HTML5, CSS3, numerous JavaScript APIs — in particular device APIs who allow deeper integration with the hosting device; see the list of Standards for Web Applications on Mobile
• the Mobile Web Best Practices and the Mobile Web Application Best Practices offer guidance to developers on how to create content and applications that work well on mobile devices;
• see also how to design Web sites that are both accessible and mobile-friendly.
