Calcite and mobile devices

[Trippetoe]

Hello,

Does the current suite of calcite components scale well on mobile devices like phones? I found an older community post where there is a quote from Esri about calcite-shell being designed for tablet and larger screens.  Is that still relevant for the new Calcite releases? If so, does Esri have plans to make Calcite responsive and fit nicely in phone-sized screens.

Thank you.

We are using Calcite for a responsive app and it works nicely for this. In
our situation, most of the necessary work was unrelated to Calcite but the
components worked well for us in both a desktop and mobile phone layout.

Calcite has an initiative in 2023 for responsive layout across components, where progress can be tracked with #6670.

Additionally, there are three components which will need a refactor once the initiative is complete including Checkbox, Shell, and Stepper - with implementation time TBD.

Thank you for the info! So, given your deep expertise / knowledge of Calcite, if today you were starting a project to build a new web app with a 'mobile-first' design imperative, would you build that app on Calcite components?

Thanks again.
