Slide 6

Slide 6 text

“I need a mobile website NOW!”

Slide 7

Slide 7 text

Do you really need a separate mobile version of your site?

Slide 8

Slide 8 text

If so, which devices would you target?

Slide 9

Slide 9 text

And what about tablets?

Slide 10

Slide 10 text

Are you going to build a specific website for every device that hits the market?

Slide 11

Slide 11 text

“Time to stop and THINK!”

Slide 12

Slide 12 text

Most websites don’t need a specific mobile site...

Slide 13

Slide 13 text

They just need to look good in all sorts of different devices

Slide 14

Slide 14 text

In 2010, Ethan Marcotte coined the term “responsive web design”

Slide 15

Slide 15 text

Rather than build separate mobile & desktop websites...

Slide 16

You can create a single site that adapts to suit any device regardless of screen size or orientation

“But what if we really need a mobile site?”

Slide 26

Slide 26 text

There may be times when a mobile specific website is necessary.

Slide 27

Slide 27 text

Even in these cases, a responsive design should still be the default option. Device-specific solutions can be added on top.

HOW DOES RESPONSIVE DESIGN WORK

Slide 29

Slide 29 text

Ethan Marcotte defines responsive web design with three criteria

Slide 34

Slide 34 text

1024px

Slide 35

Slide 35 text

Flexible images and media (videos etc) This allows your images and videos to reflow with the layout 2

Slide 47

Slide 47 text

PROBLEM No.1

Slide 48

Slide 48 text

Media queries are not supported by some mobile devices... In fact, many mobile devices..

Slide 49

Slide 49 text

What’s the SOLUTION?

Slide 50

Slide 50 text

MOBILE FIRST

Slide 51

Slide 51 text

The simplest solution is to start with a mobile, or small screen layout first.

Slide 52

Slide 52 text

This means create a single column liquid layout that will work in any device

Slide 53

Slide 53 text

Then you can add advanced layout styles using media queries - for devices that support them.

Slide 54

Slide 54 text

PROBLEM No.2

Slide 55

Slide 55 text

Media queries are not supported by older versions of Internet Explorer (versions 6-8)

Slide 56

Slide 56 text

“Curse these old browsers”

Slide 57

CREATING FLUID IMAGES & MOVIES

Slide 62

Slide 62 text

Creating fluid images is easy. You can just set a width or max-width for all images. img { max-width: 100%; }

Slide 63

Slide 63 text

Fluid video is harder, but luckily there is help at hand:

Slide 64

Slide 64 text

What about large images and MOBILE?

Slide 65

Slide 65 text

RESPONSIVE IMAGES

Slide 66

Slide 66 text

One concern with the “mobile first” approach is that large images may be served to mobile devices.

Slide 67

Slide 67 text

Luckily, there are a range of solutions now available that let you serve small images as a default, and then larger images where needed.
