Jason Gonzales has worked as a musician and an English teacher, but frontend engineering is his passion. He is a self-taught engineer and an obsessive learner and researcher. He's been working on frontends for over seven years, but also does full-stack work and lots of fretting over making sites that have awesome user experiences. This keeps him learning pretty much on a daily basis, which is how he likes it.
I'd like to thank my wife, kids, and friends for putting up with me while working on this book. I'd also like to thank Bear Republic Racer 5, coffee, and vim.

Building websites that display well on everything from web-enabled smartphones to tablets, to laptops and desktops, is a daunting challenge. The myriad permutations of screen sizes and browser types might be a reason enough to not even try. But if your business counts on getting web content to people on these devices and you need your business to look tech-savvy, you must put your best foot forward. In this book, you will see that with the help of some easy-to-understand principles and an open source framework you can build a mobile first responsive website fast.
, Mobile First How and Why? gives a quick introduction to mobile first strategy.
, Building the Home Page , dives right in and builds the face of your site and the foundation for the rest of the site.
, Building the Gallery Page , builds a responsive page to show off your work.
, Building the Contact Form , lets prospective clients contact you from a device of any screen size.
, Building the About Me Page , makes an attractive, responsive page to help people get to know you.
, Anatomy of HTML5 Boilerplate , gives an overview of HTML5 Boilerplate, including meta tags and scripts.
, Using CSS Preprocessors , helps you learn the basics of CSS Preprocessors and how to use them.
You should have Windows or Linux. The instructions in this book favor Mac OS X and Linux, but for the most part we will only be writing plain text and using very few command-line tools. In places where we do, I have done my best to offer up resources for how to get similar results on a Windows computer. You should also have a text editor. It will be very helpful if you know how to launch and use a command-line tool.
