Progressive Enhancement Works

Progressive enhancement is not about supporting old platforms: anyone who says this totally misunderstands the concept. Progressive enhancement means one thing: delivering what can be supported to the right platform. This means the following:

Including everything that is absolutely necessary for the comprehension and functionality of the website in HTML.Not static HTML, mind you, but HTML rendered by a well-written back end that gets the data via an API.

Keeping the look and feel as much in CSS as possible.If you need a few HTML elements to achieve a certain look, that is not an issue whatsoever. This is actually why we have elements like SPAN and DIV. You will find standards zealots who frown upon every extra DIV on the page. Tell those people to chill out.
