This is a discussion and collection of links about web design which tries to give some guidelines. It is in no way meant to be complete.
A responsive layout in website design means that the website automatically adjusts its layout, images, and content based on the screen size and device being used (desktop, tablet, or smartphone). This ensures a consistent and user-friendly experience across different devices.
Key Features of a Responsive Layout:
Flexible Grid System – Uses relative units like percentages (%) instead of fixed pixels (px).
Media Queries – CSS rules that adapt styles based on screen width.
Fluid Images & Media – Images resize automatically (max-width: 100%).
Mobile-First Approach – Designs prioritize mobile usability first and scale up for larger screens.
Touch-Friendly Elements – Buttons, links, and interactive elements are easy to tap on mobile devices.
Examples of Responsive Design:
Mobile View: A stacked layout with a hamburger menu.
Desktop View: A wider, multi-column layout with a full navigation bar.
