Tiivistelmä
Responsive Web Design Workflow is a literature review about Responsive Web Design, a web standards based modern web design paradigm. The goals of this research were to define what responsive web design is, determine its importance in building modern websites and describe a workflow for responsive web design projects.
Responsive web design is a paradigm to create adaptive websites, which respond to the properties of the media that is used to render them. The three key elements of responsive web design are fluid layout, flexible media and media queries.
As the numbers of mobile device users are constantly increasing, responsive web design has become an important method to improve mobile device user experience and accessibility in browsing the web. The workflow to build responsive websites consists of eight cumulative and iterative steps, which are discovery, planning, content design, sketching, prototyping, visual design, testing and discussion. As each web design project is unique and has different content, audience and goals, it is difficult to create a perfect workflow model. The responsive web design workflow described in this thesis is a recommendation and a collection of best practices for building responsive websites.
