Mobile version of GitHub

GitHub has finally introduced the mobile version of the site. “GitHub is a great tool for developing and publishing software, but much of the development process still requires a laptop or desktop computer. On the other hand, our phones are not very suitable for writing code, but they are ideal for viewing and reading. We concentrated on this when creating the mobile version of the site, ”write the developers.

Since the GitHub site is often accessed via links from Twitter, Facebook, etc., it was decided to create a mobile version of the site, in addition to the native Android and iPhone applications. At the same time, the main emphasis was placed on optimizing the size of the HTML code and the speed of loading pages. The developers tried not to use JavaScript and CSS.

As a result, it was possible to reduce the size of pages several times.
