css media query breakpoints code example

Example 1: css media query

/* BOOSTRAP MEDIA BREAKPOINTS */
/* Small devices (landscape phones, 576px and up) */
@media (min-width: 576px) {  
  .selector {
  	background-color:#f00;
  }
}
/* Medium devices (tablets, 768px and up) The navbar toggle appears at this breakpoint */
@media (min-width: 768px) {}
/* Large devices (desktops, 992px and up) */
@media (min-width: 992px) {}
/* Extra large devices (large desktops, 1200px and up) */
@media (min-width: 1200px) {}

Example 2: bootstrap media query breakpoints

// Extra small devices (portrait phones, less than 576px)
@media (max-width: 575.98px) { ... }

// Small devices (landscape phones, 576px and up)
@media (min-width: 576px) and (max-width: 767.98px) { ... }

// Medium devices (tablets, 768px and up)
@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 991.98px) { ... }

// Large devices (desktops, 992px and up)
@media (min-width: 992px) and (max-width: 1199.98px) { ... }

// Extra large devices (large desktops, 1200px and up)
@media (min-width: 1200px) { ... }

Example 3: media query breakpoints

// Best Practice suggests
// 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 above till next break point)
@media (min-width: 576px) { ... }

// Medium devices (tablets, 768px and above till next break point)
@media (min-width: 768px) { ... }

// Large devices (desktops, 992px and above till next break point)
@media (min-width: 992px) { ... }

// so on ...

Example 4: bootstrap media queries

/* Answer to: "bootstrap media queries" */

/*
  Since Bootstrap is developed to be mobile first, the use a handful
  of media queries to create sensible breakpoints for their layouts
  and interfaces. These breakpoints are mostly based on minimum
  viewport widths and allow scaling up elements as the viewport
  changes.

  Bootstrap primarily uses the following media query ranges—or
  breakpoints—in their source Sass files for their layout, grid system,
  and components.

/* Extra small devices (portrait phones, less than 576px) */
/* No media query for `xs` since this is the default in Bootstrap */`32`

/* Small devices (landscape phones, 576px and up) */

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

/* Extra large devices (large desktops, 1200px and up) */
