Where space is severely limited, it is acceptable to remove auxiliary functionality, but this should be avoided where possible.
Using a mobile-first approach can make layout design and implementation easier.The layout of content within the main workspace should dynamically respond to the size of the available area. This may change due to the state of collapsible panes as well as screen size.
