Responsive design means that a website adapts its layout, typography, images and interactions to different screen sizes. The goal is for content to remain understandable and usable on mobile, tablets and larger screens without having to build separate websites.
What does responsive design involve in practice?
In practice, layouts are built with flexible widths, grids, flexbox, suitable breakpoints and content that can adapt. The design should be tested with real text and on actual devices. A solution can be technically responsive and still provide a poor mobile experience if buttons are too small, spacing is cramped or important content is pushed too far down.
Responsive design is relevant to all modern websites because traffic comes from many devices. It also affects SEO, accessibility and conversion. See the web.dev guide to responsive design, Mobile-first and Universal design.
