    */
    @media only screen and (min-width: 960px) {
        /* styles for browsers larger than 960px; */

    @media only screen and (min-width: 1440px) {
        /* styles for browsers larger than 1440px; */
    }

        /* for sumo sized (mac) screens */
    }
    @media only screen and (max-device-width: 480px) {
       /* styles for mobile browsers smaller than 480px; (iPhone) */
    }
    @media only screen and (device-width: 768px) {
       /* default iPad screens */
    }

Example 5: media query

// Example media query syntax
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
  .my-example-class {
    padding: 50px;
  }
}

// Best Practice
// keep default style for smallest screen size (portrait mobile, below 576px)
// and then proceed in assending order with media query like below

// Small devices (landscape phones, 576px and up)
@media (min-width: 576px) { ... }

// Medium devices (tablets, 768px and up)
@media (min-width: 768px) { ... }

// Large devices (desktops, 992px and up)
@media (min-width: 992px) { ... }

// so on ...
