The Mobile First Approach

When people say "mobile first" in referring to web design & theming, it's not just a mentality or something people say in a "the way it ought to be" sort of sense. They literally mean, designing the mobile theme first, then adding on CSS for tablets, desktop, and wide desktop themes. In a technical sense, it means that the global.css that contains the basic design elements of the site is loaded no matter what device you are using to view the website. Then, CSS3 Media queries determine what the size of the window is and additional stylesheets will be tacked on; either "narrow", "normal" , or "wide" - depending on the width of the device.  

 The presentation started with an explanation of what Drupal is. Simply put, Drupal is a system to manage content on websites. Drupal is a content management system that has boundless possibilities of uses. Drupal has the flexibility to be used on all types of projects from small brochure-ware to robust information architecture sites like a newspaper or magazine.

Have you ever needed to remove a JS or CSS file in certain conditions such as a custom themed page? In Drupal 6 that has become a whole lot easier.
