How To Use CSS Breakpoints For Responsive Design

What's this blog post about?

CSS breakpoints are crucial for creating responsive designs that provide an exceptional user experience across different device viewports or screen sizes. They help in splitting the design into smaller versions of a website based on the device's screen size, ensuring smooth navigation and readable content. CSS media query breakpoints can be set using min-width, max-width, or a combination of both. It is recommended to use relative units like ems or percentages instead of absolute units like pixels for better responsiveness. The common breakpoints are 320px for mobile devices, 481px for iPads and tablets, 769px for small screens, 1025px for large screens, and 1201px for extra-large screens.
