Responsive Web Design with HTML5 and CSS

Since 1996, Ben Frain has worked as a web designer/developer. He is currently employed at bet365 as a UI-UX Technical Lead. Prior to the internet, he worked as an underappreciated (and modest) TV actor and technology journalist after graduating from Salford University with a degree in Media and Performance.

Responsive Web Design with HTML5 and CSS, Third Edition is a revised and expanded edition of one of the most comprehensive and best-selling books on the most recent HTML5 and CSS tools and techniques for responsive web design.

This edition, written in the author's trademark-friendly and informal style, covers all of the most recent developments and improvements in responsive web design, such as improved user accessibility, variable fonts and font loading, CSS Scroll Snap, and much, much more. A new chapter will explain how CSS Grid differs from the Flexbox layout mechanism and when you should use one over the other.

You will also learn how to write accessible HTML markup, create stunning aesthetics and effects with CSS, use transitions, transformations, and animations, integrate media queries, and more. The book concludes with the author's exclusive tips and approaches to front-end development.

By the end of Responsive Web Design with HTML5 and CSS, you will not only have a thorough understanding of responsive web design and what is possible with the latest HTML5 and CSS, but you will also know how to implement each technique effectively.

What you will discover:

• Include CSS media queries in your designs; use different styles for different devices.
• Load different image sets based on screen size or resolution.
• Use accessible HTML patterns to benefit from their speed, semantics, and clean markup.
• Incorporate SVGs into your designs to provide images that are resolution independent.
• Use the most recent CSS features such as custom properties, variable fonts, and CSS Grid.
• Add validation and interface elements to HTML forms, such as date and color pickers.
• Learn how to use filters, shadows, animations, and other effects to enhance interface elements.

Are you a full-stack developer looking to hone your front-end skills? Perhaps you work on the front end and require a comprehensive overview of everything modern HTML and CSS have to offer. Maybe you've built a few websites before, but you need a solid understanding of responsive web design and how to implement it. This book is for you!
