Responsive Design

A quick look at making something responsive

Responsive Design

Looking at the syntax

@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {
  body {
    background-color: lightblue;
  }
}

All this means is:

 

the body will have a light blue background

as long as the screen is less than 600px

Responsive Design

Lets make our page resonpsive 

@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {
  
  h1{
    color: red;
  }
  
}

The h1 will be blue when the page is small

 

try increase the number 600px and adjusting your browser widow

Responsive Design

Lets make our page nice! 

@media only screen and (max-width: 850px) {
  
  h1{
    font-size:2rem;
  }
  
  nav li{
    font-size:.9rem;
  }
}

When the page is viewed at these mobile widths, we want the h1 and nav items to be a bit smaller

Responsive Design

Lets make our page nice! 

  <nav>
    <ul>
      <li>Home</li>
      <li>About</li>
      <li>Work</li>
      <li>Item</li>
    </ul>
  </nav>
    
  <div id="grad1"></div>
    

Our image looks crummy in mobile, and we do not want to stretch it, so let's get creative.

 

Add this to the HTML

And add a new media rule above the other one

@media only screen and (max-width: 1200px) {
  
  
}

Responsive Design

Lets make our page nice! 

We want the image to disappear at tablet widths

we want to replace it a color background

Let's do this live! A few gotchas

@media only screen and (max-width: 1200px) {
    
  .banner-image img{
      display:none
    }
  
    #grad1{
    display:block;
    background-image: linear-gradient(#6A86AA,#169F85);
    height:1200px;
    }
}

What does it mean to get a page online?

Q & A Time!

That's all folks
