Responsive Design

Responsive Design is a web design approach that ensures websites dynamically adjust to the user’s viewport, device, or orientation (such as landscape mode). This approach, a major milestone in web development, was introduced by Ethan Marcotte in 2010. It relies on a flexible grid system that allows for scalable design, accommodating screen sizes from the smallest to the largest.

Ideally, responsive design is implemented using a UX/UI design system (such as Figma) that defines the standards and key parameters for web developers. Additionally, responsive design provides the foundation for building digital products with a mobile-first approach.
