Responsive Design and Dark Mode
Build layouts that adapt to any screen with mobile-first breakpoints and add a polished, user-aware dark mode using CSS variables and Tailwind.
Mobile-First Thinking
Responsive design means one layout that adapts to phones, tablets, and desktops. The modern approach is mobile-first: style the small screen first, then add enhancements for larger ones.
Media Queries
The CSS @media rule applies styles only above (or below) a width. Mobile-first uses min-width breakpoints.
.grid { display: block; }
@media (min-width: 768px) {
.grid { display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; }
