With the exponential adoption of mobile devices and smart phones, savvy web designers are turning to responsive web design as a panacea for all things layoutf and typography related.<\/p>\n

Not only does this save time, money and effort in the long run, but it also gives mobile users the interaction and ease of use<\/a> they crave.<\/p>\n

But if you\u2019ve been tasked with creating a mobile responsive design and aren\u2019t sure where to start, this checklist of must-have resources and tips is sure to give you the spark you need to create a fluid, friendly design that accommodates nearly every mobile device \u2013 past, present and future.<\/p>\n

Layout, Wireframes and Prototyping<\/h2>\n

The first step of any good design is to sketch out your ideas and determine the placement of all the different elements on a page. \u00a0These tools can help you do just that:<\/p>\n

Responsive Wireframes<\/h3>\n

\"responsive<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a good starting place for learning how responsive design elements \u201cstack\u201d in typical layouts and how to determine which areas of your layout will get the most emphasis across different devices.<\/p>\n

Responsive Wireframes, created by James Mellers of Adobe, offers desktop and mobile varieties of common wireframe mockups, including homepage, guided entry, \u00a0promo entry, product detail and comparison pages.<\/p>\n

Clicking the \u201cToggle!\u201d button in the upper right will show you an example of how different elements on that page will change according to the device they\u2019re being viewed on.<\/p>\n

For a more illustrative example, check out his other project, Responsive Design, Responsively Illustrated<\/a>.\u00a0It lets you resize your browser window to see the types of size constraints you\u2019ll be working with.<\/p>\n

Multi-Device Layout Patterns<\/h3>\n

\"multi<\/a><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re trying to decide which type of responsive layout to choose according to a site\u2019s existing content and how you want it presented, these examples should help with the decision-making process.<\/p>\n

Designer Luke Wroblewski<\/a> has combed through countless mobile-responsive designs and layouts and has managed to categorize the majority of them into five distinct layouts. His website shows these different patterns and how they work.<\/p>\n

Wirefy<\/h3>\n

\"wirefy\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For designers and developers who focus on \u201ccontent first,\u201d Wirefy<\/a>\u00a0is a terrific solution.<\/p>\n

Simple and elegant in its presentation, Wirefy lets you plan and structure your content.\u00a0 You can also use these fully-functional wireframes to show clients how their new responsive site will look and work.<\/p>\n

A word of warning: You\u2019ll need a basic code editor and a working knowledge of HTML and CSS to get the full benefit of Wirefy.<\/p>\n

Interface Sketch<\/h3>\n

\"interface<\/a><\/p>\n

Do you yearn for the \u201cgood old days,\u201d when you\u2019d sketch a layout in a notebook with those archaic tools, pencil and paper?\u00a0 Fear not!\u00a0Interface Sketch<\/a> understands.<\/p>\n

This option offers printable PDFs for a wide range of devices, from desktop browsers to generic tablets. Plus, they\u2019re free!<\/p>\n

CSS and Fluid Grids<\/h2>\n

Sometimes, just browsing and analyzing layouts isn\u2019t enough. You have to get into the nitty-gritty, pushing pixels and coding core components of a site.<\/p>\n

If that’s you, try these Photoshop-style layouts and responsive grids that update according to your changes and custom input.<\/p>\n

Style Tiles<\/h3>\n

\"styletiles\"<\/a>
\nClearer than a mood board but not as labor intensive as a full-on mockup, StyleTiles<\/a> bridges the gap between creating a style that both the designer and client can agree on.<\/p>\n

It does this through a Photoshop-style template where colors, basic layout and logo can be added and adjusted to fit your needs. Here’s a screenshot of this baby in action:<\/p>\n

\"styletile2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Bootstrap<\/h3>\n

<\/h3>\n

\"bootstrap\"<\/a>
\nBuilt by designers at Twitter, Bootstrap<\/a> is designed to make prototyping easy and relatively painless.<\/p>\n

Using the Customize feature, you can pick and choose the different responsive elements that make up a page, then download a finished version with compiled and minified CSS, jQuery plugins, and other neatly packaged goodies to simplify your work.<\/p>\n

Gridset<\/h3>\n

\"gridset\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Gridset<\/a> works with different content management systems, including Joomla, Drupal and WordPress, as well as working in popular graphics applications like Photoshop and Fireworks.<\/p>\n

Grid layouts can also be shared with colleagues, making this an exceptional wireframing and prototyping tool that carries over well throughout the different production phases of your website design.<\/p>\n

Adobe Edge Reflow<\/h3>\n

\"reflow\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While currently still in Preview mode, expect this new tool from Adobe<\/a> to quickly become a designer favorite.<\/p>\n

Unlike Photoshop, which focuses extensively on graphics editing, Edge Reflow was created expressly to handle responsive layouts.\u00a0Grid systems, handling media queries, and generating advanced CSS layouts are all in a day\u2019s work for Reflow.<\/p>\n

Responsive Graphics, Fonts and Videos<\/h2>\n

Responsive layouts and designs are one thing, but can graphics<\/a> be made responsive?\u00a0 What about movies or text?<\/p>\n

The answer is yes! \u00a0Thanks to some clever programming and genius coding by these fine contributors:<\/p>\n

Adaptive Images<\/h3>\n

\"adaptive\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Adaptive Images<\/a> reads a viewer’s screen size and automatically rescales your embedded HTML images for optimum viewing. No mark-up is needed. It can be set up in three simple steps using libraries that are generally available through hosts that support PHP (Apache, GD lib and PHP 5.x).<\/p>\n

Retina Images<\/h3>\n

\"retina\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Retina Images is an easy-to-setup system that displays high resolution images as alternatives on devices that support them.\u00a0 Only one image is ever downloaded at a time, so there\u2019s no excess load time on your server for images that won\u2019t be displayed.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, as long as your images have height and width attributes, you don\u2019t need to make any changes to them.<\/p>\n

Blueberry<\/h3>\n

\"blueberry\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Want an image slider that was built from the ground up to work with mobile-responsive designs? Give Blueberry a try.<\/p>\n

Many of the popular image sliders on the market aren\u2019t exactly compatible or user-friendly when viewed on devices other than a desktop or laptop.\u00a0 Blueberry is an attempt to nudge them in a more mobile-friendly direction.<\/p>\n

FitText<\/h3>\n

\"fittext\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Fit Text<\/a> is a jQuery plugin that allows text to scale according to the device it\u2019s being viewed on. It resizes text based on ratios and is intended for use with headlines only. \u00a0If you want more precise control over your typography, check out their related plugin, Lettering.js<\/a>.<\/p>\n

FitVids<\/h3>\n

\"fitvids\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t let the 80s-inspired design scare you. FitVids<\/a> is every bit as modern as its jQuery cousins, FitText and Lettering.js.\u00a0 FitVids works to make your video adapt to fluid designs using Javascript and CSS magic.<\/p>\n

Responsive, SEO Friendly Data Tables<\/h2>\n

Mobifreaks<\/h3>\n

\"seo<\/a><\/p>\n

If you need a sleek, responsive way to present data-based tables, Mobifreaks<\/a> has some CSS-based tables that also happen to be search-engine friendly and mobile-responsive \u2013 the best of all possible worlds!<\/p>\n

Testing, Device Detection and Older Browsers<\/h2>\n

Now comes the moment of truth\u2026 testing.\u00a0 You\u2019ve created a great layout, incorporated smart, fluid coding and now you\u2019re ready to show off your new responsive creation to the world.\u00a0 But did you test it properly?\u00a0 Here are a few tools that can help:<\/p>\n

Matt Kersley\u2019s Responsive Design Testing<\/h3>\n

\"matt\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Matt Kersley<\/a> developed one of the most popular responsive design testing tools on the web, and after one try, it\u2019s easy to see why.\u00a0 It\u2019s flexible enough to be used with any site, and can be installed on your own server for faster troubleshooting.<\/p>\n

You can test the width for proper breaking points of your content, or test both the width and height of popular mobile devices for proper comparison.<\/p>\n

Responsinator<\/h3>\n

\"responsinator2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Responsinator<\/a>\u00a0shows you how your page loads on a variety of mobile devices. Simply enter your URL to see exactly what mobile browsers see, in both portrait and landscape views.<\/p>\n

What are your favorites?<\/h2>\n

With these responsive design tools in your arsenal, you\u2019ll have everything you need to create fluid, flexible designs that are optimized for search engines, mobile devices and the people who use them.<\/p>\n
