Découvrer le responsive web design et apprenez à concevoir des sites qui anticipent et répondent aux besoins de vos utilisateurs. A very short book; I think it took me an hour or so to read all the way through. BUT...it brings together all the threads of the Responsive Web Design concept in a clear and useful way. (He's self-deprecating about it, but the math for calculating a flexible grid's proportions based on a pixel grid is easy and just what I needed.) I ended the book fired up to do design this way from now on, and to go back and update sites I already have out there. Great color screenshots, easy-to-read code. And I like the quirky friendly voice. A notable thing, from my POV as someone who's been making websites for well over a decade (!), is his references in the acknowledgements to "A Dao of Web Design" - that article marked a critical moment in my growth as a web designer. It was written back when IE5 was the new hotness, IIRC, but it's the same philosophy undergirding this book, and that's a damn good thing. Marcotte shows via narrative and code samples (HTML and CSS with a little JavaScript/jQuery) how to think about serving a web site to the plethora of different devices visitors might be viewing it on. His writing is engaging and his examples are realistic. This book and Luke Wroblewski's 'Mobile First', which I liked less well, jump-started my mobile-related development efforts. Published in 2011, Marcotte's book remains relevant and timely despite enormous changes in the mobile domain. no reviews | add a review
