Hi,
I've been working a while ago on a Mobile Skin which principle is the
following:
1/ Light UI adapted to mobile devices, both phones and tablet (with a
particular attention to tablets), giving most of the screen real estate to
the page content
2/ Support all Javascript normally supported in the XWiki skin in order for
any code inside pages that would use this Javascript to still work
3/ Automatic detection of mobile devices to make them switch to the mobile
skin
4/ Ability to switch from mobile to normal skin
5/ compatibility with color themes
I believe this approach is the right one, as XWiki instances do have
significant Javascript and in order to make sure these pages work, we need
to be able to accept this javascript.
Of course some other improvements could be done, for example to have a
mobile friendly dashboard or livetable.
Now this work has had a few iterations with particularly some relooking
work from Caty.
The work is published here:
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/SimpleMobileSkin
And the code is available here in both XAR and File-System version (for
XEM):

The skin can be tested on the incubator (although there is not the
automated switch)

I've also worked on integrating this in the platform. The commit is
available in a fork on github:
https://github.com/ldubost/xwiki-platform/commit/064baeb017b35e08a526029381…
I'd like some comments and discussion so that we can bring this into the
platform.
