Before DBC I did some reading about responsive design and took couple tutorials but I don’t think I learned as much as now that I creating and building sites.
Couple days ago, I took one of my favorite books ( “Responsive Web Design” by Ethan Marcotte) from my shelf to read it again and its amazing how things sound so different now. (This book was recommended by Jeffrey Zelman who is a well know designer and influencer in the web design community).
Here is a sneak peek of this book:
“Rather than creating disconnected designs, each tailored to a particular device or browser, we should instead treat them as facets of the same experience. In other words, we can craft sites that are not only more flexible, but that ca adapt to the media that renders them.
The ingredients:
- A flexible, grid-based layout,
- Flexible images and media
- Media queries, a module form the CSS3 specification.
I recommend this book to anyone interested in responsive design. Its a quick and interesting reading, specially if your focus is on front end web design.
