Tools to Make website responsive


Web design has evolved tremendously over the past few years; we went from walls of text on a plain and static background all the way to fully interactive and responsive designs which make websites look like something out of a science fiction novel. However, people today are using responsive designs not solely because it looks attractive, but because it actually drives more traffic.

Go for Versatile Images
Images are very important for visitors, regardless of whether you are looking to demonstrate how something works or just to set the mood, without forgetting that a website devoid of pictures just looks plain and boring. The Filament Group has developed a certain technique which allows you to install a script on your website which makes the images completely resizable. This is perfect not only for people with smaller monitors, but also for mobile internet users, of which there are more and more every day.

Using the Yoko Theme
Chances are that your website is based on the WordPress platform, and as you know there is a myriad of themes out there available to download. Yoko is one of the most popular themes as it has a layout based on CSS3 media queries. In other words, it is capable of adjusting itself depending on the screen size of the user, making it ideal for users who have huge desktop screens, a tablet computer or a tiny smartphone screen. In addition, it should be noted that the Yoko theme actually looks quite pleasant in itself, using mainly white and blue while being simple and extremely easy to navigate.

Creating Websites with Skeleton
What is Skeleton? Well it is a collection of CSS files which allow you to quickly and easily develop a website that is going to look beautiful and be fit for any kind of screen, ranging from 26-inch monitor to a tiny smartphone. The Skeleton uses a common 960 grid at the base and seamlessly scales every single thing on screen according to the device used. In addition, the grid is intuitively-structured, using a simple user interface for your convenience. Also, it should be mentioned that Skeleton is a development kit for the basic parts of the website; it can be adapted to whatever style or design you have in mind.
