Talk

"Going Responsive for Developers"

Designing and creating a website that is suitable for both the desktop and mobile is a unique kind of challenge. In the past years we have seen the rise of Responsive Design; a methodology and mindset on how to make a website suitable for both platforms.

During this talk we'll design a new website using Responsive Design and show what considerations and design decisions are to be encountered along the way.
