media quiries code example

Example 1: css media queries

@media only screen and (max-width: 1200px){
    /*Tablets [601px -> 1200px]*/
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 600px){
	/*Big smartphones [426px -> 600px]*/
}
@media only screen and (max-width: 425px){
	/*Small smartphones [325px -> 425px]*/
}

Example 2: media query min and max

/* Max-width */
@media only screen and (max-width: 600px)  {...}

/* Min-width */
@media only screen and (min-width: 600px)  {...}

/* Combining media query expressions */
@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) and (min-width: 400px)  {...}

Example 3: media query

@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {
  body {
    background-color: lightblue;
  }
}

Example 4: 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 ...
