eBook Description:

Mastering Responsive Web Design with HTML5 and CSS3: Become a master in RWD with this practical, engaging guide

If you already know some HTML and CSS and understand the principles of responsive web design, this book is for you. There’s something here for you to learn regardless of if you’re a web designer or web developer, or whether you’re a seasoned expert web professional.

Responsive web design is getting more complex day by day and without the necessary design and development skill sets, it’s a matter of time before we’re left behind. Whether you’re a web designer or web developer, or a seasoned expert web professional, this book will bolster your HTML and CSS skills to a master level.

Building meaningful and accessible websites and apps using HTML5 and CSS3 is a must if we want to create memorable experiences for the users. In the ever-changing world of web designers and developers, being proficient in responsive web design is no longer an option, it is mandatory.

The book is designed in a way that each chapter will take you one step closer to becoming an expert in RWD. The book begins with introducing you to the power of CSS preprocessors, Sass in this case, to increase the speed of writing repetitive CSS tasks, then use simple but meaningful HTML examples; and add ARIA roles to increase accessibility. You will also understand why a mobile-first approach is ideal.

Next, you will learn how to use an easily scalable CSS grid or if you prefer, use Flexbox instead. Create navigations for small screen devices using the “drawer navigation,” “off-canvas” or “toggle” navigation patterns, and also implement images and media in both responsive and responsible ways. Finally, you will build a solid and meaningful typographic scale and make sure your messages and communications display correctly with responsive emails.
