Chapter Seven. Building Widgets with Progressive Enhancement
When building web sites and applications with progressive enhancement, it’s important to use the x-ray perspective to decide how the basic and enhanced experiences work together, and then follow the best practices for coding the markup, CSS, and JavaScript in an accessible way to provide the best possible experience to the widest range of browsers and devices.
Synthesizing these best practices can be a bit daunting the first time through.
