Responsive web design and development

Have you ever opened up a web page on your mobile phone or tablet, only to experience instant frustration when the page didn’t fit on your screen and you couldn’t properly view the content? Although users across the world prefer to view the web via multiple digital devices, many companies are still resistant to making their websites mobile friendly. Even companies that understand the need to be mobile-ready and develop mobile-optimised sites often do it halfway, creating mobile sites with limited content and features.

The Backbones of Responsive Design

How does responsive web design work, anyway?

In the old days, web pages were created with a set width and height, based on the number of pixels. Because the size of the page was predetermined, most of the page would appear off-screen when viewing on a smaller device.

Instead of this old school method, responsive design uses elements that automatically resize into different grids based on the size of your screen. If you are viewing the webpage on a large laptop screen, the grid will display with a wider array, taking up the full width of your screen.

When viewing on a tablet or mobile device, the grid will stack vertically, so all the same elements that you saw on the right side of your laptop screen appear on top of one another like a tower of building blocks.

This responsive layout ensures that every part of your website will be displayed to the user.
