RWD Example

Responsive Web Design (RWD) is a web design that provides an optimal viewing experience- easy reading navigation with minimum resizing, panning, and scrolling with a wide range of devices. Starbucks is a great example of a website that would efficiently work on may different devices. Check it out at www.starbucks.com! Here are a few pictures of the website when the size is altered:

This is the main website- what it looks like on a computer full screen.

This screenshot is what the website looks like at about half the original size. A few qualities are missing, such as the search bar on the top and the picture captions of the right. Image sizes are lessened, but still the same quality. All the content is still easily readable and can be located easily.

This screenshot is the website at about 1/4 the size of the original, it is just a small, vertical sliver of the original. Even when the site is small, I can still read and see all the pictures. The headers at the top are now contained under a drop-down menu on the upper right corner. The main feed of the website is placed one under another. When I changed the width and size of this website, it constantly transformed and stayed clean cut. Starbucks is a great example of  RWD.

Responsive Web Design

Responsive Web Design (RWD) is a web design that provides an optimal viewing experience- easy reading navigation with minimum resizing, panning, and scrolling with a wide range of devices. RWD is important because it is one website that can be used on many devices so it is always accessible. Media queries is a CSS module allowing content rendering to adapt to the device conditions like screen resolution (smartphone vs. high definition screen). Breakpoints are the point where your site content will respond to provide the user with the best possible layout to consume information. 

My Story

When I say that I value something, I am saying that that object or those people have contributed to who I am today. For me, I don't value my phone or my car because those objects didn't shape my personality and what I have become over the years. An example of something that I value a lot is the beach. Not just because I like the water and warm weather (even though I do), but because that is where my family lives. I only see them every few years, and whenever I am with them, we are on a beach together. I value the memories I have on the beach with the people I love, not just the warm sand and the sunshine. I enjoy the band Twenty One Pilots because of the way I found out about them, which was an accident. They opened for the band Imagine Dragons when I saw them in concert. They only sang five songs, but they are now my favorite band and I will never forget hearing them live for the first time.
In this society, we are so brainwashed with what we have and how we look and who we look up to, that we forget that deep down we are all just the same. Everyone wants the cutest clothes and the biggest house, so when some of us have it, why should we value it? The joy that you get from an object only lasts so long, but the memories and important things that represent you are what will bring you long-term happiness. So I guess what I'm saying is that the things that I value the most are memories. I can say that I value objects or people, but behind everything that I say is a memory that I will cherish forever.
