In Detail

Creating a speedy, user-friendly, and uniform experience across different devices has been a challenge with responsive design. 72 percent of responsive websites deliver the same volume of bytes irrespective of the device or screen size, which makes it difficult for sites to load on slow websites.

We will start with an overview of all of the workable aspects of responsive design, and then we will quickly focus on practical things that we can start doing without much effort to get our site performing better than ever before on different types of devices. We will then get into one of the most important aspects of websites: managing images. Since we need our images to display nicely and also load quickly across all devices such as computer, mobile, tablet, and so on, we will look at ways to do so in this book.
