4. Web Development Today!
Dizzying number of devices with varying screen sizes
Web remains the one thing common
Ubiquitous with most reach
Plenty of matured server side technologies – ASP.NET, PHP, JSP etc.
But modern browsers pack a punch – your latest VM
So, why not do more client-side?
Plethora of JavaScript frameworks
Web needs to be more interactive, x-plat & more fun!
