Responsive Web Design: What It Is and
How to Use It
Kayla Knight
Almost every new client these days wants a mobile version of their website.
It’s practically essential after all: one design for the BlackBerry, another for
the iPhone, the iPad, netbook, Kindle — and all screen resolutions must be
compatible, too. In the next five years, we’ll likely need to design for a
number of additional inventions. When will the madness stop? It won’t, of
course.
In the field of Web design and development, we’re quickly getting to the
point of being unable to keep up with the endless new resolutions and
devices. For many websites, creating a website version for each resolution
and new device would be impossible, or at least impractical. Should we just
suffer the consequences of losing visitors from one device, for the benefit
of gaining visitors from another? Or is there another option?
Responsive Web design is the approach that suggests that design and
development should respond to the user’s behavior and environment
based on screen size, platform and orientation. The practice consists of a
mix of flexible grids and layouts, images and an intelligent use of CSS
media queries. As the user switches from their laptop to iPad, the website
should automatically switch to accommodate for resolution, image size and
scripting abilities. In other words, the website should have the technology
to automatically
respond
to the user’s preferences. This would eliminate the
need for a different design and development phase for each new gadget
on the market.
