Architecture for having both a mobile and regular site?


I've been asked to develop a mobile version of an existing site and I'm curious about the best way to set everything up.

Does it make more sense to create two separate versions of the site: one for mobile one regular? If I do this are there any common techniques for synchronizing the content on both sites?

Or should I just create a second version of the CSS that targets handheld media types?


Solution

  • If your website is simple text base or blog then it will effective to use "responsive design"

    Responsive web design (often abbreviated to RWD) is an approach to web design in which a site is crafted to provide an optimal viewing experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices (from desktop computer monitors to mobile phones)
