The document discusses how WordPress can be used for more than just blogs. It notes that WordPress is a content management system that allows users to easily manage content, links, media, posts and pages through an intuitive dashboard interface. It highlights some key benefits of using WordPress for websites over blogs, such as the ability to have static pages instead of just dynamic posts, thousands of theme customization options, and the vast library of plugins that expand its functionalities far beyond blogging. The document aims to demonstrate that WordPress is a versatile platform for building various types of websites.

The document discusses responsive web design techniques for creating websites that work well across all device screens. It covers fluid layouts using relative units like percentages, media queries to apply styles conditionally based on screen width, and image optimization techniques like srcset and sizes attributes to serve the most appropriately sized image for different screens. The goal is to provide an optimal viewing experience for users on any device without needing separate mobile sites.

This document provides an introduction to basic web page design using the WordPress platform. It discusses why individuals should have a personal website, including to share their story, connect with others, and help with job opportunities. The document then outlines what is required to build a website, highlighting WordPress as a free and easy to use option. It includes step-by-step instructions for signing up for WordPress and choosing a theme. Widgets and customizing the appearance of the site are also covered at a high-level. Readers are then instructed to create their own basic four page website on WordPress.

This document discusses responsive web design. It begins by explaining that current grid/layout thinking is based on pages, but with responsive design there is no page. It then discusses how responsive design works by using fluid grids, flexible images and media, and media queries to adapt the layout based on screen size. It provides examples of how to implement a fluid grid and make images flexible. Finally, it gives some tips for responsive design such as using relative sizing and media queries to define breakpoints for different screen widths.

You know it's important for your web project to be accessible to people who use all kinds of assistive technology to access the internet. But all the guidelines for web accessibility you can find don't go much beyond "make sure all your images have alt text", and all the resources you can find treat "accessibility" as a synonym for "making your site work in a screen reader". You know there are other things you should be doing and other forms of assistive technology you should be accomodating, but all the best practices documents are a complicated morass of contradicting information (if you can find best practices documents at all.) Have no fear! This tutorial gives you a number of concrete steps to take to make things more accessible. This presentation has downloadable notes and exercises available at http://denise.dreamwidth.org/tag/a11y . Video of the talk should be available later.

In this presentation we cover the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org. We then move on to some tips on how to choose and register a good domain name as well as finding the right hosting provider.

This document discusses different options for developing WordPress themes, including frameworks, child themes, starter themes, and parent themes. It defines each option and outlines the pros and cons. Frameworks provide base CSS and components but require a parent theme. Child themes are easiest but depend on the parent theme's code. Starter themes give full control but require building everything. The document recommends researching frameworks, gaining experience with child themes on one parent theme, and eventually moving to a preferred starter theme.

Learn why you should improve your WordPress site's loading speed, and what steps to take to load your site in under two seconds.

WordPress has some inherent accessibility limitations, especially with themes which are often not accessible and difficult to find. While WordPress itself has few issues, it only controls a small part of a site's presentation. The admin interface has improved accessibility but more work is needed. Finding truly accessible plugins also requires careful vetting as there is no quality control. Efforts are underway to develop accessible themes, highlight helpful resources, and add accessibility auditing to improve the situation overall.

This document discusses responsive web design and how websites can adapt to different devices. It notes how people now access the web through desktop browsers, mobile browsers, tablets, TVs, game consoles and more. Responsive web design involves making sites flexible through techniques like flexible grids, flexible images and media, and media queries. Media queries allow stylesheets to be tailored for different device widths. Key aspects of responsive design include considering user needs over our own, adapting to device capabilities, and future-proofing sites. The document provides examples of responsive patterns and techniques.

There is no mobile Web, there is no desktop Web, and there is no tablet Web. We view the same Web just in different ways. So how do we do it? By getting rid of our fixed-width, device-specific approaches and use Responsive Web Design techniques. This session will focus on what is Responsive Web Design and how you can use his 3-pronged approach on your current apps today which will also adapt to new devices in the future.

The document discusses responsive web design, which involves designing websites to adapt to different screen sizes and devices. It covers key aspects of responsive design like flexible grid layouts, flexible images and media, and media queries. Responsive design helps ensure websites are usable on a variety of devices and future-proofs sites as technology changes.

This document discusses responsive web design (RWD). RWD allows websites to automatically adjust their layout depending on the user's screen size using media queries. It is important for accessibility and usability as most internet users now access the web on mobile devices. The document recommends using a mobile-first and progressive enhancement approach where basic content and functionality work on all browsers and advanced features are progressively added. It provides examples of RWD techniques and tools to test responsive designs.

This document summarizes Vitaly Friedman's talk on responsive design techniques and tricks. The talk covered resolution independence using SVG/icon fonts, content choreography with Flexbox, compressive images that maintain quality at different sizes, conditional loading of assets based on breakpoints, and lazy loading of JavaScript and social buttons. It also discussed maintaining aspect ratios for images and videos across screens, and serving different video files for different devices. The overall message was that responsive design requires a new mindset and pragmatic solutions rather than rigid rules.

Presented with Christian Ståhl Everyone is talking about responsive design. But are you really ready to bring SharePoint to mobile and tablets? While you may have an idea of what your site will look like when finished, there are many basic concepts and pitfalls that aren’t always outlined in the “How To’s”. In this session, we will go through foundational steps to planning a responsive SharePoint site including how to handle a hybrid content scenario that uses publishing and team sites. You will learn what tools and templates can make your life easier during design, build and testing. If you are excited about the capability of bringing SharePoint to any device but not sure where to start, check out this session to get the foundational understanding of the concept, best practices and examples to get you started.

With great power, comes great responsive-ability web design. Responsive web design (RWD) will be demystified. Believe it or not, it's more than just media queries, although those will be discussed. It starts with proper UI design and application architecture, and then the dive into CSS - but not too deep! You don't have to be an expert to do RWD, but it helps to have some idea of what you are doing.

This document discusses responsive web design and how it allows websites to adapt to different screen sizes and devices. It introduces some key concepts of responsive design including flexible grid-based layouts, flexible images and media, and media queries. It provides examples of how to use these techniques like converting pixel sizes to relative units and setting breakpoints with media queries. The goal of responsive design is to think about the user's needs on different devices and help future-proof websites.

Designing for the web is no longer what it used to be. The number of devices with web-browsing capabilities is growing at an increasing speed. RWD is an approach aimed to provide a solid viewing experience for a multiple of screens with one set of code.

The web has come a long way. One of the great features of the modern web is responsive web design (RWD). RWD allows developers to create a single web client for all devices & platforms. This presentation is an introduction to key concepts developers need to understand in order to start implementing responsive web design.

The push for responsive web design has helped web developers consider how the sites they develop can adapt to different devices, including sizes, screen resolutions, and even contexts. It should now be easier than ever to respond to a format that has existed since the start of the web -- print. I'll walk through the process for making your responsive sites respond to the format we most often forget and show you how to use Google Analytics to track what pages are printed from your site.

This document provides an overview of responsive web design and media queries. It begins with an agenda for the topic and then discusses how media queries allow content to adapt to different screen sizes and orientations. It provides examples of common media query values like width, height, and orientation. The document also includes code snippets showing how to write media queries and link different style sheets. Finally, it outlines workshops and assignments for students to practice working with media queries hands-on.

Responsive web design is an approach to web design that makes web pages render well on a variety of devices and screen sizes. It involves using fluid grids, flexible images, and media queries to automatically adjust for different screen sizes and devices. While the concept has existed since the early days of the web, it has grown in popularity recently due to advances in CSS3 and JavaScript that allow for more flexible and dynamic layouts. Responsive design aims to provide an optimal viewing and interaction experience across a wide range of devices by adapting the layout depending on screen size and orientation.

The Omega Drupal 7 Base Theme is a highly configurable HTML5/960 grid base theme that uses built-in media queries to make the site responsive. Each zone (group of regions) can be configured for content first layouts, that resize and rearrange themselves depending on the screen size of the user's device. The presentation will walk-through the theory behind Omega's mobile-first approach, how to use the many configuration options on the theme settings page, pitfalls to avoid, and what's on the forecast for Omega 4.x!

Responsive web design allows a website to adapt to different screen sizes using fluid grids, scalable images, and media queries. It involves developing sites using relative units like percentages instead of pixels so elements resize proportionately. Media queries allow different CSS stylesheets to be loaded depending on screen width, orientiation, resolution and other factors. This allows a single website to be accessed seamlessly on any device from phones to desktops to tablets without needing separate mobile sites.
