Chapter 8. Creating a Web App Interface
We’ve spent some time now looking at different aspects of responsive design, as well as trying out some of the WordPress plugins and themes we can use to make our site mobile-friendly.
In this chapter, we’re going to go one step further—we’re going to start creating a web app. Specifically, we’ll do the following:
Learn about web apps and how they differ from native apps
Identify when a web app might be useful
Identify some plugins which can help us deliver an app-like experience
Style our site so that on mobile devices, it looks more app-like
Create a separate theme to build our web-app
Web apps are a very exciting advance in mobile web development, so let’s learn how to create them!
