• Mobile First : use min-width (lower to higher)

Order to apply Media queries

1. base + typography
2. general layout
3. grid
4. page layout
5. components

Handling Images

• Density Switching - high-res (2px for 1px) & low-res(1px for 1px)

  • <img srcset="img1x.png 1x, img2x.png 2x" alt="Image">

• Art directions - different images for different screen

  <picture>
      <!-- when lower than 600px -->
  	<source srcset="imgsmall1x.png 1x, imgsmall2x.png 2x" media="(max-width: 37.5em)"> 
      <!-- using density switching with art directions -->
      <img srcset="img1x.png 1x, img2x.png 2x" alt="img">
  </picture>

• Resolution Switching - large & small screen

  <!-- in srcset , the images are specified with their original width-->
  <img srcset="img1.png 300w, img1-large.png 1000w" 
       sizes="(max-width: 900px) 20vw, (max-width: 600px) 30vw, 300px">
  <!-- in sizes , the screen size is speicified with the image width to be used, last one being the default size -->

• Handling Images in CSS - media queries combined with screen res & width

  // for resolution greater than 1px and 600px width or webkit is for safari browser
  @media (min-resolution: 192pi) and (min-width:600px) ,
      (-webkit-min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) and (min-width:600px){
      // image you want to set
      }

Feature Queries

• Browser

  @supports (-webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(10px)) or (backdrop-filter: blur(10px)){
  	-webkit-backdrop-filter: blur(10px);
      backdrop-filter: blur(10px);
      //use only if the browser supports these properties
  }

• Touch Capability - This will apply for small screen OR non hover screen. @media only screen and (max-width: 56.25em), only screen and (hover:none){}
