Abstract:
"
As with the continuous rise in smartphone penetration worldwide, the use of mobile phones to
perform tasks and browse through the internet are at a continuous rise. This causes more and more
businesses to consider the decision of optimizing their web sites and web applications to become
more mobile responsive. It is important to have a device responsive site because more people are
likely to visit a site from their smart devices due to the increased convenience. With mobile
responsive sites becoming more crucial it is important to make the process of optimizing websites
more efficient. When considering the developers who develop websites that must do this for
multiple UI depending on the device the website is being viewed in, it is thought that a more
efficient, time saving process would be preferred.
This is where SourceGen comes into play - a front-end MVC framework which will be open source
and that can be used to generate the mobile responsive source code upon providing the desktop
source code. In addition, the framework also provides additional features such as minifying the
code to ensure the overall performance is optimized to work faster and quickly responsive. For
this, an Open AI model was built containing approaches used in existing products and research to
generate source codes and an algorithm was implemented to carry out the device responsive source
code.
Once implemented the framework was further tested and evaluated by domain experts and
potential users who further supported the need for such a front-end framework and confirmed that
the project deliverables were successfully completed."
