</div><section id="abstract" class="introductory"><h2>Abstract</h2><p>The W3C Core Mobile Web Platform Community Group was established with the objective of helping to make the Web a compelling platform for developing modern mobile applications. The motivation for that is the widespread view that the Web does not represent a compelling platform for mobile applications today.
</p><p>This document presents a small number of simple mobile Web application use cases. It goes on to list features that the underlying mobile Web platform needs to offer to support those use cases. It then lists technology standards (primarily W3C Recommendations) that describe those features - and also notes the current state of development of such specifications, noting also where such specification do not at present exist.
</p><p>The purpose of the document is to promote understanding of which areas of Web technology are in need of development, and to encourage prioritization of those areas for specification, implementation and testing.
</p><p>Other aspects of the Community Group's work, which includes the collation and specification of test suites to assess conformance to referenced standards, and the specification of a framework within which such conformance testing might be assessed are referenced.

href="http://www.w3.org/community/coremob/charter/">charter</a>:
</p><blockquote>
<p>The goal of the Core Mobile Web Platform (Coremob) Community Group (CG) is to accelerate the adoption of the Mobile Web as a compelling platform for the development of modern mobile Web applications. In order to achieve this mission, the CG brings developers, equipment manufacturers, browser vendors, operators and other relevant members of the industry together to:
</p>
<ol>
<li>Agree on core features developers can depend on. These will be defined by reference to a variety of other specifications from the W3C and other standards bodies.</li>
<li>Compile related conformance test suites.</li>
<li>Provide to W3C (and non-W3C) groups use cases, scenarios, and other input to drive successful mobile deployment.</li>
</ol>
</blockquote><p>This document is the initial output of the Community Group. Its focus is items 1 and 3 from its charter above.
</p><p>The following sections serve to contextualize the role of this document against the CG charter.
</p><section id="audience"><h3><span class="secno">1.1 </span>Audience</h3><p>The primary audience for this document is standardization groups within the W3C as well as equipment manufacturers and browser vendors. The CG also intends it to be of interest to others in its chartered constituency, especially developers, for feedback on the selection of use cases and the derivation of technology requirements from those use cases.
</p></section><section id="goals"><h3><span class="secno">1.2 </span>Goals</h3><p>In respect of Coremob Charter item 1. above, developers should be able to rely upon a set of Web technologies being consistently present and interoperably implemented across a wide range of browsers.
</p><p>Technology specifications do not advance at a similar rate and are not necessarily of equally widespread utility for particular application use cases. In addition, some depend on others. This document is a description of a subset of Web platform technologies, and provides for a limited, or base set of such use cases.
</p><p>The CG may go on to produce a number of further descriptions of subsets of Web platform technology specifications which will provide for increasingly sophisticated application use cases.
</p></section><section id="methodology"><h3><span class="secno">1.3 </span>Methodology</h3><p>The use cases chosen reflect a selection of popular applications that have been created using "native" techniques. Although the chosen set of use cases is limited, and the functionality implied by them is (relatively speaking) simple, the set of functionalities is nonetheless described as being "aspirational" because it goes beyond the state of implementation by most current browsers, and indeed goes beyond the current state of specification of some of those features - see below <a href="#aspirational-nature-of-the-document">Aspirational nature of the document</a> for a discussion of the aspirational aspect, as construed in this revision.
</p><p>Having identified features of the Web platform that are required to fulfill the use cases it is then possible to identify a set of technology specifications (or to note the absence of suitable specifications) that specify those features.
</p><p>Further, having identified a set of specifications, it is then possible to identify a set of tests (or note the absence of such tests) that can be used to assess conformance with the identified specifications and also to propose a test environment in which those tests can be carried out.
</p></section><section id="purpose-of-this-document"><h3><span class="secno">1.4 </span>Purpose of this Document</h3><p>This document, as mentioned above, sets out the initial limited set of use cases; it derives Web platform technology requirements from them and it identifies technology specifications, at various states of maturity, that fulfill those requirements. It does not identify tests or test suites that match those technology specifications.
</p><p>Since standardization work is required to complete the set of technologies required to fulfill the various use cases the document identifies, one of the purposes of the document is to point out that increased coordination between the groups that create standards would be beneficial in order to create a more coherent and pragmatically useful mobile Web application platform.
</p><p>The intention of this document and subsequent editions, in regard of developers, is to solicit feedback on the use cases and on specific technology areas that are problematic when used in a mobile context. Developers are especially encouraged to contribute to the work of the CG, since it is hoped that such participation will reduce future maintenance and development costs for them and will also provide a means by which developers' voices may be heard by constituencies that need to hear them.
</p></section><section id="aspirational-nature-of-the-document"><h3><span class="secno">1.5 </span>Aspirational nature of the document</h3><p>To be clear, the CG is not expressing the judgment that it is not possible to use the Web platform to build a wide variety of applications that can be used in a mobile context. Indeed, there are applications that can be built on the Web platform that work well in a mobile delivery context. The group notes, though, that those applications are not usually specifically mobile in their use cases and tend to be similar in nature to applications that have desktop use cases as much as they have mobile use cases.
</p><p>Further, the view that it is already practical to develop effective mobile Web applications is expressed with the caveat that there are many "quality of implementation" issues that developers may encounter. For example, the frame rate achievable when developing mobile games may not be sufficient, in some cases, and as another example the synchronization of playing sounds may not be adequate.
</p></section><section id="mobile-focus"><h3><span class="secno">1.6 </span>Mobile Focus</h3><p>Mobile devices often have capabilities (such as a camera) or circumstances of use (such as periods off line, or frequent periods with low bandwidth for data transfer) that make mobile both a more rewarding environment for creation of applications and a more difficult environment for such implementations too.
</p><p>With the rapid increase in uptake of use of mobile devices, both in developed markets and in less developed markets (perhaps as the only means of Web access in those markets), the CG believes that closing the gap between what can be achieved using Web technology on mobile and what can be achieved using "native application implementations" needs to narrow, urgently.
</p></section><section id="other-aspects-of-the-cg-s-work"><h3><span class="secno">1.7 </span>Other aspects of the CG's work</h3><p>Other aspects of the CG's work, as mentioned in its charter, continue in parallel to the development of this document. Those activities include a "Gap analysis" of where there are existing test suites relevant to the technologies identified in this document, as well as discussion of a Test Framework within which to execute tests of the conformance of implementations of technologies identified here.
</p><p>The CG's <a href="http://www.w3.org/community/coremob/">Web site</a> and <a href="http://www.w3.org/community/coremob/wiki/">Wiki</a> contain links to various aspects of the group's work.
</p></section><section id="structure"><h3><span class="secno">1.8 </span>Structure</h3><p>The document has the following structure:

Touch-enabled devices delay click inputs (presumably to handle long and double taps). While there are some <a href="https://developers.google.com/mobile/articles/fast_buttons">different</a> <a href="https://github.com/ftlabs/fastclick">solutions</a> that remove the delay, developers tend to rely instead on touch events [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-TOUCH-EVENTS">TOUCH-EVENTS</a></cite>]. In turn, this creates content which doesn't work properly when used with a different kind of input mechanism. In order to address this situation, the <a href="http://www.w3.org/2012/pointerevents/">Pointer Event WG</a> was formed and has published a first Working Draft [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-POINTER-EVENTS">POINTER-EVENTS</a></cite>].
</p></section><section id="responsive-images"><h3><span class="secno">5.2 </span> Responsive Images</h3><p> While a lot has been done to address <a href="#req-responsive" class="reqRef">Req. 3</a>, notably through media queries, there is no set solution for responsive images to date. The <a href="http://www.w3.org/community/respimg/">Responsive Images CG</a> has made a proposal (<a href="http://picture.responsiveimages.org/">The picture element</a>), and so has the HTML WG (<a href="http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/srcset/w3c-srcset/Overview.html">The srcset attribute</a>). The HTML WG is set to determine the merit of both solutions and examine whether they should be combined.

The WebApps WG is <a href="http://www.w3.org/2012/webapps/charter/Overview.html#deliverables">chartered</a> to work on this and has two related specs: Widget Packaging and Configuration [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-WIDGETS">WIDGETS</a></cite>] (which has had little traction among the main vendors), and Web Application Manifest Format and Management APIs [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-WEBAPPS-MANIFEST-API">WEBAPPS-MANIFEST-API</a></cite>] (which is still an early Editor's draft). Additionally, the combination of a number of [<cite><a class="bibref" href="#bib-HTML5">HTML5</a></cite>] features, such as the <code>title</code> element, <code>meta</code> application-name element and <code>link</code> icons element provides similar capabilities, yet this solution lacks sufficient comprehensiveness and cohesiveness to meet the requirements.
</p></section><section id="offline"><h3><span class="secno">5.4 </span> Offline</h3><p> Currently, Application Cache is the only Web technology designed to address <a href="#req-offline" class="reqRef">Req. 6</a>.

This technology is very complex, poorly understood, and hard to use. It is also <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/#status-of-this-document">marked at risk</a> in the HTML5 specification.
</p><p> Recently, the <a href="http://www.w3.org/2012/10/30-webapps-minutes.html#item06">WebApps WG has decided to take over this work</a> with the blessing of the HTML WG.

</p><p> However, there is early work going on to address some of these.
</p><section id="momentum-and-infinite-scrolling"><h3><span class="secno">6.1 </span> Momentum and infinite scrolling</h3><p> Smooth and stutter-free scrolling is first and foremost a QoI issue. However, the requirements (maintaining 60fps while possibly altering the DOM) are sufficiently taxing that they are difficult to meet on mobile devices, even on high-end ones. Some <a href="http://fremycompany.com/TR/2012/ED-css-viewport/">very recent work</a> attempts to cater to this issue.
</p></section><section id="chromeless-mode"><h3><span class="secno">6.2 </span> Chromeless Mode</h3><p> While within the scope of the WebApps WG's <a href="http://www.w3.org/2012/webapps/charter/">charter</a>, no work that would address <a href="#req-fullscreen" class="reqRef">Req. 12</a> is currently ongoing.
</p></section></section><section id="quality-of-implementation"><!--OddPage--><h2><span class="secno">7. </span> Quality of Implementation</h2><p> The CG notes that functional conformance to specifications is sometimes insufficient to create a functional user experience of Web applications. There are many areas in which non-functional (or QoI) requirements have been noted, relating to speed, time related consistency (smoothness) and so on.
</p><p> The group's work to date has yielded the following particular points of note:
</p><section id="qoi-of-the-audio-element"><h3><span class="secno">7.1 </span> QoI of the <code>audio</code> element</h3><p> Implementors should pay particular attention to the quality of implementation of the <code>audio</code> element. <code>audio</code> elements are commonly used in games to play background music and sound effects. It is recommended that implementations support playing 8 audio files in parallel without audible artifacts and provide sub 10ms latency.
</p></section><section id="performance-of-the-canvas-element"><h3><span class="secno">7.2 </span> Performance of the <code>canvas</code> element</h3><p> Implementors should pay attention to the performance characteristics of the <code>canvas</code> element which is particularly well suited for the development of 2D and isometric games. In order to meet the expectations of users, implementations should be capable of running such games at 30fps in full-screen mode.
</p></section><section id="performance-of-scrolling-transitions-and-animations"><h3><span class="secno">7.3 </span> Performance of scrolling, transitions, and animations</h3><p> Smooth scrolling, transitions, and animations are key to delivering great user experiences. Implementations should aim to render these at 60fps.
</p></section><section id="dedicated-form-controls"><h3><span class="secno">7.4 </span> Dedicated form controls</h3><p> On mobile devices content input is often tedious. Implementors should therefore implement dedicated form controls where appropriate (for example, displaying a numerical keypad for inputs of type <code>tel</code>).
</p></section></section><section id="conformance"><!--OddPage--><h2><span class="secno">8. </span> Conformance</h2><p>This document does not express any conformance requirements.
