Platform and Device Considerations Questions

Evaluates a candidate's ability to design for multiple device contexts and platform constraints. Topics include responsive and adaptive layout strategies, differences between native mobile and web interaction models, platform specific conventions and guidelines, input and form factor considerations, performance and network trade offs, offline and synchronization strategies, and how to test and validate experiences across device families. Candidates should be able to reason about consistent cross platform patterns, when to optimize for platform parity versus platform specific affordances, and how device context affects priorities and usability.
