These device types have changed the approach toward design and user experience, which is why mobile responsive design is now so important.
So, what is responsive design? Well, as your website visitor switches from their desktop computer to tablet to smartphone, a responsive website will automatically respond to the user’s preferences and switch to accommodate for resolution, image size, and scripting abilities.
This has great advantages – because your style settings apply regardless of the device type used by your websites’ visitors.
Standard View
The Standard View refers to the default view of your website that you’ll see on a typical desktop computer, laptop or some tablet devices. The menu (or navigation), depending on the template that you’re using with your website – is arranged horizontally or vertically, fold out or a “drop-down”.
Mobile View
Unlike the Standard View, you’ll notice when looking at a Mobile View of a website built with S9 Digital, you will see the ‘Hamburger Menu’. This refers to the three horizontal bars you can see on the top-right of the adjacent screenshot. By a simple tap of the finger, the Hamburger Menu will open accordingly.
The Hamburger Menu is ideal for smartphones and tablet devices because it saves space. The buttons are optimally adapted to the resolution of the screen and are very easy to tap. To ensure that everything is clear and simple to navigate through, your websites’ content is stacked. It would not be listed side by side in columns like the Standard View.
So, with a responsive design, our website automatically looks fantastic on mobile and tablet devices. Making it very easy to navigate and use.
