Responsive design is the approach that makes web design look good on all devices, from mobile phones to desktop computers.

Key Principles

  • Fluid Grids: Using percentage-based widths instead of fixed-width layouts.
  • Flexible Images: Images that scale with the width of the screen.
  • Media Queries: CSS technique to apply different styles based on the screen size.

Common Challenges

  • Performance: Ensuring the website loads quickly on all devices.
  • Navigation: Designing a user-friendly navigation system for touch devices.

Example of Media Query

@media (max-width: 768px) {
  .container {
    width: 100%;
  }
}
