Mobile first?

1 pointsby joeldiditalmost 12 years ago
Is this a good idea, or should it only be done in the event that the app being created is especially suited to mobile use?<p>I can see mobile being a great (and convenient) extension of an already existing web platform, but I can&#x27;t see it by itself. I&#x27;m thinking about creating an app, but what I&#x27;m about to do would be just a regular web app with no mobile extension. Is this a good idea nowadays? I&#x27;m thinking this way because I don&#x27;t use mobile very often (read: not at all), and only see it as a means to text and take pictures. Am I going to be missing out on something by not building a mobile app?<p>Also, it seems like the mobile app market is saturated. Is it even possible to etch out a space in that ecosystem anymore as a newcomer?
