You can make your layout look even better on mobile using meta viewport.
Learn CSS Layout"Responsive Design" is the strategy of making a site that "responds" to the browser and device that it is being shown on... by looking awesome no matter what.
Media queries are the most powerful tool for doing this. Let's take our layout that uses percent widths and have it display in one column when the browser is too small to fit the menu in the sidebar:
@media (min-width:600px) {
nav {
float: left;
width: 25%;
}
section {
margin-left: 25%;
}
}
@media (max-width:599px) {
nav li {
display: inline;
}
}Now when you resize your browser it's even cooler than ever!
