Responsive design beyond the breakpoints

Build a fluid foundation

Use flexible tracks, sensible maximum widths, and spacing that can interpolate. Reach for a breakpoint when the composition changes, not whenever a value feels inconvenient.

• Prefer minmax() for resilient grids
• Let text wrap naturally
• Avoid fixed heights around content

Test with hostile content

Long navigation labels, untranslated words, empty images, and multi-line headings expose assumptions that ideal placeholder copy hides.

Verify real interaction

Check touch targets, drawer focus, viewport zoom, landscape layouts, and browser chrome on physical devices as well as the Designer canvas.
