Mobile app design for touchscreen devices has more in common with classic industrial design principles than the software interface development patterns of the desktop computing era. In this hands-on webcast presented by Jonathan Stark, author of 'Building Android Apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript' and 'Building iPhone Apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript', learn how to take your mobile app from concept to completed design by exploring practical principles and visual examples.

What will be covered?

• User centered design
• Defining the mobile context
• Pragmatic UI guidelines
• Editorial considerations for small screen
• Best practices for touch interfaces
• Designing cross-platform controls

Who is this webcast for?

This webcast is for web designers and developers who are interested in creating mobile apps. A basic familiarity with standard HTML, CSS, and JavaScript would be very helpful but is not required.

NOTE: Jonathan Stark is presenting a series of webcasts that are held on the 3rd Thursday of each month.
