<p class="description">Combining the power of the Web with the strengths of mobiles devices.</p>
<p>W3C’s mission includes ensuring that the Web be available on as many kind of devices as possible. With the surge of powerful mobile devices in the past few years, the role of the Web as a platform for content, applications and services on these devices is increasingly important.</p>
<p style='float:right;padding-left:0.5em;'><a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/02/mobile-web-app-state.html"><img src="/2011/02/webapp-sm" width="100" height="51" alt="Standards for mobile Web applications" /></a></p>
<p>W3C accompanies this growth with its ongoing work in the following areas:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="/standards/techs/mobileapp">mobile Web applications</a> can take full advantage of the technical progress in the Open Web Platform, including <a href="/standards/techs/html">HTML5</a>, <a href="/standards/techs/css">CSS3</a>, numerous <a href="/standards/techs/js">JavaScript APIs</a> — in particular device APIs who allow deeper integration with the hosting device; see the <a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/02/mobile-web-app-state.html"><strong>list of Standards for Web Applications on Mobile</strong></a></li>
<li><a href="/standards/techs/widgets">W3C widgets</a> offer a packaging format to distribute Web-based applications;</li>
<li>the <a href="/TR/mobile-bp">Mobile Web Best Practices</a> and the <a href="/TR/mwabp">Mobile Web Application Best Practices</a> offer guidance to developers on how to create content and applications that work well on mobile devices;</li>
<li>mobile devices are available in areas of the World where computers and fixed Internet access won’t be available for long if ever: W3C is also exploring ways to use the <a href="/2008/MW4D/">Web on mobile devices to bridge the digital divide</a>;</li>
<li>see also <a href="http://www.w3.org/WAI/mobile/">how to design Web sites that are both accessible and mobile-friendly</a>.</li>
