Summary


We covered a lot of ground in this chapter and we now have all the skills and tools to take, what would have been a pretty generic-looking mobile site, and turn it into something unique. We know how to make it look unique, how to host it, how to get the user there, and how to give them a more functional parachute if they're unhappy. Already, we're several steps ahead of the average developer who's just getting started and this is only the second chapter.

In the next chapter we'll start looking into more in-depth topics that bigger businesses usually care about, such as validation, analytics, and many more.
