[EP-tech] Re: Fix Mobile Usability Issues
ZURB Foundation is worth a look too. I?ve used this for a few sites already, and we are planning to incorporate Foundation into the redesign of our Eprints templates:
http://foundation.zurb.com
Personally I?d take the Google critical usability warnings with a pinch of salt. Google now are now ranking mobile friendly/responsive sites higher in search results, but it doesn?t necessarily mean you have critical usability issues in your site. That said, mobile first/responsive design is the best approach for new websites, or site redesigns.
Best regards,
John
