We will then leverage that established code to create a Web Version. Finally we will create a Mobile version of the display. All of this will be accomplished in 1 day, using a single project file, shared between all 3 IDEs.

Sometime responsive just isn’t responsive enough, and you need to create pages specifically designed for mobile devices.
