Responsive SharePoint? Best Practices Real, Live Examples!

Responsive Design & SharePointWhat, Why and When?

What is Responsive Design?

“Responsive web design (RWD) is a web design approach aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices (from mobile phones to desktop computer monitors).”

In Other Words…

• Works well across browsers and form factorso Desktop, tablet, phoneo IE, Safari, Chrome

• Resizing, scrolling, panning et cetera is minimized: Less pinching and expanding

• Navigation is easy

Key Findings: #3

Key Findings: #3

Responsive design can quickly get expensive depending upon:

• Which browsers need to be supported• The design itself (animations, parallax scrolling, etc.)• Device sizes (iPad, iPad mini, iPhone, etc.)

Key Findings: #3

Collaborating? Think about how the ribbon elements will merge with the design if it’s an authenticated site (i.e., requiring login – most intranet and extranet scenarios) versus an anonymous site (many public internet sites).
