About this tag
Progressive enhancement is a web development strategy that focuses on building a core experience that works for all users, then adding advanced features for browsers that support them. The tagged content on WindowsForum.com explores this approach through a series of posts about the 10k Apart contest site, which was built in less than 10kB. Topics include markup for accessibility and clarity, CSS structure and sandboxing, JavaScript enhancements, and compilation and optimization techniques. The series emphasizes interoperability, accessibility, and performance, demonstrating how progressive enhancement can create robust, lightweight web experiences that degrade gracefully when JavaScript or other features are unavailable.
