Developing Responsive Websites
RWX / CDX
Fort Lauderdale · December 3 - 6, 2013
About this Presentation
What makes a site responsive? What is the difference between responsive and adaptive? Does responsive design work for all sites, or just blogs?
This presentation will answer those questions with an overview of responsive and adaptive principles. Then we'll move on to real world examples, discussing the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript used to implement flexible layouts. We'll also discuss how imagery is applied in responsive design, as well as tools to enable cross-platform development.
