- An approach to web design that makes web pages render well on a variety of devices and window or screen sizes. Recent work also considers the viewer proximity as part of the viewing context as an extension for responsive web design. Content, design, and performance are necessary across all devices to ensure usability and satisfaction. A site designed responsively adapts the layout to the viewing environment by using fluid, proportion-based grids, flexible images, and CSS media queries. Responsive web design has become more important as the amount of mobile traffic accounts for more than half of total Internet traffic. ← Wikipedia
