I published a written post about this idea of the Server Side Mustard Cut. So if you’re into reading and checking out code samples and stuff, that’s the place for you. In this video I just walk through all that, explaining myself as we go.

I’ll give the same caveat I have everywhere else I’ve introduced this: this may not be perfect for every site out there. In fact I think normal RWD stuff is generally better, up to and including ajaxing for different JavaScript and stylesheets. This is for when you need entirely different documents and you want to base that on client-side data.

Here’s the live demo and the GitHub repo.
