GE.com

The GE.com project consisted of a complete re-design (which included the implemntation of a responsive design) of the site. I contributed to front-end development and page template creation.

I worked on making sure (i.e. navigation) design elements and interactivity would be consistent among different devices. Some things I picked up included using jQuery to shift the order DOM elements for different screen sizes and the non-standardized way different devices listen to mouse-events [1].

Notes

1. Did you know that DROID and iOS both have zany ways of detecting how and when a user clicks/touches the screen? Did you also know that iOS devices don’t like customized form elements? So even if you spend hours messing with CSS and Javascript to get a drop-down looking EXACTLY like the comps, an iOS device will toss all that out (not that I’m bitter or anything).
