Mobile Design Challenge part 2

















Mobile Design Challenge part 2



Who knew that June could come and go so quickly?

Overall, it’s been great to check in on the wiki over the month and see the entries that have been coming in – as you may have noticed, a couple of the categories for the challenge have been quite new, so it’s been great to see the variety of information you all have been contributing to the community! It’s been great to see our regular contributors flexing to meet our new challenges and we’ve been really happy to see some new faces!

The winners of brand new, shiny N97 devices are:

Jappit - The File Upload is a good example of mobile web pattern, providing a great structure of usage on when and how to use it. What really shines about this article is that not only does it talk about the pattern in general, but it also provides concrete information on execution for several different platforms. Furthermore, Jappit contributed a really extensive and highly valuable series of WRT articles, including 7 JavaScript WRT components, 2 Example Widgets for existing websites (one of which for Forum Nokia), and 13 other highly interesting WRT articles. Check all the mobile design articles by Jappit >>

Alen Alebic - The GridMenu Component for Flash Lite is a great example of mobile specific implementation of a familiar component that can easily be utilized in any application.

JasperJager - The Kinetic Scroll Component for Flash Lite displays in a nice way how to utilize the interaction possibilities of the touch screen. Using this component surely will save time.

Kamaljaiswal - Kamaljaiswal did a really great job with Themes:S60 UI Components and other themes articles, building on material to be found in the Forum Nokia Library and from Carbide UI documentation and creating a lot of new valuable resources for themes!

Mayankkedia - Mayankkedia is a very active member of the Forum Nokia community and has written a plethora of articles of which the Listbox Usability is one good example. Also the improvements to many existing articles have been noted, such as Designing usability, and spicing up numerous earlier text only based articles with illustrative visuals, such as Colors in User Interface.

Aadhar14b - Nice articles, such as Information Visualization For Mobile Applications with a lot of images and out of the box thinking was what won the N97.
