Today We Celebrate Our Mobile-Friendly Hinduism Today Website Upgrade

On this final day of the Gregorian year, we are setting off silent fireworks to mark the end of a successful 2015 Digital Dharma Drive. Our goal was $70,000 this year, and as of this morning we have a little over $84,000. This is great. It will allow our little team to make important progress on our educational and spiritual resources in the months ahead and to access critical expertise we don't have.

In celebration, our team would like to present each of you with an upgrade to our heretofore stodgy (and, yes, non-responsive on mobile devices) Hinduism Today website! After many years, the HT website was in drastic need of an update, especially considering how many readers of the magazine are accessing it on their phones. This upgrade is mainly to the look and feel of the site. Being fully responsive, it scales itself to the size of the screen you're using, allowing for readability in any circumstance. All of our content is still there and now easier to find, with quick links to important content and our HPI news feed right on our homepage. For those who speak the language of the interwebs, we'd like to give thanks to the open-source bootstrap framework and to our trusty Xoops database for helping to make this upgrade a success. But most of all, a big thank you to the readers who inspire and support our work. Let the New Year begin! See HinduismToday.com

The homepage has a new look and feel and now contains more quicklinks to magazine content.

The old homepage was a design from a previous decade and, we\

re being brutally honest here, left much to be desired. '

The new layout is clean and simple. Here is the table of contents for accessing the current issue of Hinduism Today online.

When on a mobile device, everything collapses to fit your screen

Articles maintain a scale that doesn\

t require you to zoom way in and squint at the text. '

The home page has a new image slider with links to the current issue\

s main articles'

The fully functional dropdown navigation enables quick access to the site\

s vast content'

Below the image slider are quick links for the magazine, including the App download page and a slideshow of select article photos that (mostly) did not appear in the magazine due to constraints of space.

At the bottom of the home page you\

ll find three sections, one of which is our HPI news feed, news of the Hindu family worldwide updated each day'

You can also watch Bodhinatha\

s Publisher\'s Desk Videos'

And our History of Hindu India educational videos

And, of course, you can still download the app for Hinduism Today magazine and receive new digital issues as soon as they are printed.
