Site title

Responsive without max-width

Inspired by the 'fluid type' post by Trent Walton I wanted to try my own approach on this subject.

As I widen the browser window, if at any point the two asterisks appear on the same line of text, I know it’s time to increase the font size.

About the paddings

I read about this technique on Elliots blog a while ago. Today I decided to have a go myself.

Unlike almost any other responsive site I’ve designed, there’s no max-width set anywhere in the CSS file: it’s actually padding set on the html element that does a similar (but more flexible) job.

About the media query debugging

Found the technique via Johan Brook. This helps seeing quickly what media query is applied.
