Tried the ecograder tool on my github hosted single page html just for kicks.
It rated as not mobile friendly (even if I have separate media queries for mobile/tablet).
It ranked negatively on MozRank (how well linked (?) it is from other websites, which I don't understand -- neither does it explains -- how it relates to eco friendliness). At least the main site itself is penalized by the same MozRank criteria.
Seems like a tool to generate leads to Mightybyte consulting services (who developed the tool, a founding organization behind sustainable web design).
About the manifesto I have mixed feelings, to me it feels rather "wishy washy".
Wish them luck with the project.
It also has the same bug I encounter often on full bleed designs where there's extra padding/margin that makes a horizontal scrollbar visible. Which reminds me that even experienced designers still don't have a good grasp on CSS /s
- shadowfaxRodeo 5y agoI think you're right on all points. Unfortunately there's not many other people doing any of this stuff. MightyBytes and WholegrainDigital, seem to be the leaders in this space. Which is why I'll be sending them a long, annoying list of things I think can be improved. --- the idea of the MozLink thing is that you reduce the number of clicks it takes to find your website — and so reducing the number of requests made to servers. It's not a very good metric.

And then they send you on a merry goose chase through various blog sites if you want to understand what MozLink is, and how you can improve it. How ironic.
