2. “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. “ - Kayla Knight on Smashing Magazine

3. “The practice consists of a mix of flexible grids and

   layouts, images and an intelligent use of CSS media queries.“ - Kayla Knight on Smashing Magazine

4. 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. - Kayla Knight on Smashing Magazine
