Opis: Responsive Mobile Design - Phil Dutson
Create Web Designs That Work Perfectly on Any Device-Simply and Beautifully! Billions of people access the web via smartphones, tablets, and devices of all types, using every imaginable interface and display. But they all want the same thing: the right information, right now, delivered in the most aesthetically pleasing way possible. Give them what they want with Responsive Mobile Design. Whether you're a developer, designer, or manager, Phil Dutson teaches you principles, techniques, and best practices for delivering a successful experience to all users on all devices. Dutson shows how to design sites that are responsive "from the start," while keeping development simple and flexible. Next, he delivers complete technical know-how for transforming responsive designs into responsive sites. You'll find coverage of key issues such as integrating media content, optimizing performance, and serving Retina or high-density displays. Throughout, he combines detailed and practical explanations with functional, easy-to-reuse code snippets. Coverage includes * Demonstrating why "mobile first" is still a best practice * Fusing content, structure, and beauty to deliver experiences users love * Using responsive images to improve speed and convey visual messages more effectively * Using grid systems without making it feel like your design is "locked in a box" * Mastering measurement values such as px, em, rem, and viewport units-and understanding their crucial differences * Improving the finer details of your design with web fonts * Retrofitting current websites to prepare them for the future * Introducing web components into your HTML markup * Using built-in browser development tools to streamline debugging and "in-browser" prototyping "Whether you're building or refining your skill set, Responsive Mobile Design is the quintessential guide to getting up to speed with modern web practices. Phil's unique background and expertise grant him insights that both the hardcore programmer and pixel perfect designer will find invaluable." -Jacob R. Stuart, Web/UI Designer "It's impossible to build for the web today without taking various screen sizes and form factors into account; you never know if your user will be on a phone, tablet, or desktop. This book helps lay the groundwork for building responsive web designs. It's really a must-read." -Cameron Banga, Co-founder, 9magnets, LLC "Anyone looking for a comprehensive book on responsive design tactics would do well to pick up a copy of Responsive Mobile Design. Phil does a stellar job of breaking down the how and why of RWD in this practical guide to designing for a wide spectrum of screen sizes and devices." -Dennis Kardys, Design Director, WSOL "While the three initial technical ingredients of RWD (fluid grids, flexible images, and media queries) still stand true, building a site today requires much more thought and know-how than it used to. This book will take you beyond the basics and teach you the ins and outs of modern web development." -Erik Runyon, Director of Web Communications, University of Notre Dame "Phil Dutson unveils a dummy-proof treasure trove of essential mobile design advice, resources, and examples bound to enlighten designers and developers alike. This book belongs on every web designer's shelf-a comprehensive guide to return to time and time again." -Kaylee White, Web Designer, SEO.comPreface xv PART I: CREATING A RESPONSIVE LAYOUT 1 Chapter 1 Content Matters 3 What Makes Up Content 4 Choosing the Right Content 8 Discussing Content Sliders 13 Summary 14 Chapter 2 Why Mobile First 15 Viewing the Web 16 Considerations When Starting Small 19 Summary 26 Chapter 3 Working with Grids 27 Choosing a Grid 28 Using a Responsive Grid 31 Using an Adaptive Grid 34 Best of Both Worlds 37 Summary 37 Chapter 4 Displaying Tabular Data 39 Defining Tabular Data 40 Working with Tabular Data 41 Summary 54 Chapter 5 Working with Measurement Values 55 Using Pixels 56 Using Percentages 57 Using Em and Rem Units 61 Viewport Measurements 63 Summary 67 Chapter 6 Using Media Queries 69 The Viewport Meta Tag 70 Implementing Breakpoints 72 Device-Specific Media Queries 78 Summary 82 Chapter 7 Typography 83 Web Fonts 84 Font Formats 84 Browser and Device Support 86 Using Font Services 91 Icon Fonts 93 Summary 94 Chapter 8 Retrofitting an Existing Site 95 Choosing a Proper Layout for Mobile 96 Working with Components 101 Considerations When Going Mobile 106 Summary 109 PART II: WORKING WITH RESPONSIVE MEDIA 111 Chapter 9 Responsive Images 113 Images Should Be Responsive 114 Using a JavaScript Solution 124 Summary 127 Chapter 10 Responsive Video 129 Using Video 130 Delivery Systems 130 Making Videos Fit Mobile Devices 134 Summary 140 Chapter 11 Image Compression 141 Image Types 142 Compression Utilities 148 Compression Results 152 Summary 153 PART III: ENHANCING PERFORMANCE 155 Chapter 12 Conditional JavaScript 157 Why Conditional JavaScript 158 Using Conditional JavaScript 162 Using JavaScript Plugins 167 Summary 169 Chapter 13 Web Components 171 Working with Web Components 172 Examples of Web Components 172 Working with the DOM 176 Web Component Polyfills 180 Summary 183 Chapter 14 Device Detection and Server Requests 185 Device Detection 186 HTTP Headers 191 Using Client Hints 194 Summary 196 Chapter 15 Server Optimization 197 Server Setup 198 Web Servers 198 Server Plugins 201 Summary 209 Chapter 16 High Performance with Development Tools 211 Development Tools 212 Browser Developer Tools 212 Build Tools 225 Summary 228 Index 229
