There are so many good resources I believe simply mentioning 'Mobile First' would help people out. A quick google: - http://www.html5rocks.com/en/mobile/responsivedesign/ - https://adactio.com/journal/4494/ - http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2011/08/10/techniques-for-gracefully-degrading-media-queries/

@jaimerod Sure: some clients will not accept a mobile layout for IE8 but this does _not_ mean you should build desktop-first… Build a mobile-first app to keep things lightweight and...
