What is the best framework for HTML 5 based mobile development?

I evaluated a few frameworks like jQuery Mobile , Sencha Touch , but didn't find any framework which extends its components in the mobile version as it does on the desktop version.

Do you have any suggestions?

If you want to build a mobile-only site, I think the best html5 frameworks are:
jQuery mobile + PhoneGap
Sencha Touch + PhoneGap

If you want to build a website that adapts for mobiles, tablets and desktop computers use Twitter Bootstrap, HTML5 Boilerplate, Zurb Foundation, Skeleton or Blueprint

    Perfect suggestions. Even if there is a universe of possibilities, those are the most popular. There is a lot of documentation and a very active community for those technologies. – slash28cu Jun 06 '13 at 16:43

I suggest going for Twitter Bootstrap, Zurb Foundation V 4, or skeleton as the most ideal frameworks with HTML5 for mobile development.
