Responsive Web Design

Responsive Web design is the most economical way to “future proof”a website for device compatibility. Evaluate the responsiveness of your current website by adjusting your browser window and by testing it on devices, such as iPhones, Android handsets, tablet computers, netbooks, etc.

Evaluate how your own website renders on these devices and test our website and the responsive websites we have designed.

With the rapid increase in use of handheld devices for accessing the internet, almost every website owner these days wants a mobile version of their website. It’s practically essential after all: one design for the BlackBerry, another for the iPhone, the iPad, netbook, Kindle — and all screen resolutions must be compatible, too. In the next five years, we’ll likely need to design for a number of additional inventions. When will the madness stop? It won’t, of course.

Responsive web design (RWD) has created a buzz around the tech world-- it is an approach that enables optimal viewing of websites across smartphones and tablets. The increasing use of Smartphones has brought a great revolution in the designing industry. Now websites are no longer restricted to the large and traditional canvas of desktop systems, they can be viewed on small screen devices too. The biggest challenge for a designer is to ensure that a website renders seamlessly both on small and big screen devices. Now what are the ingredients that make a design responsive?

RWD is a blend of different features that allows a website to adapt the environment of the device; this mix is made up of CSS3, media queries, fluid grids, flexible images and videos. Ethan Marcotte wrote an introductory article about the approach, “Responsive Web Design,” for A List Apart first time in 2010 and bostonglobe.com was among the first websites to move to RWD.

We develop complex sites based on content management system and Responsive Web Design. We can also migrate any existing website with traditional design to a Responsive Website. We completed several RWD projects well before Microsoft made its homepage responsive and long before Mitshubishi switched to responsive website. We can confidently showcase our capabilities as far as Responsive Web Design on database driven websites. Incorporating Responsive Web Design on database driven website is far more complex than creating a simple responsive static page.
