Typical Device Breakpoints
There are tons of screens and devices with different heights and widths, so it is hard to create an exact breakpoint for each device. To keep things simple you could target
five groups:
Example
/*
Extra small devices (phones, 600px and down) */@media only screen and (max-width: 600px)
{…} /* Small devices (portrait tablets and large phones, 600px and up)
*/@media only screen and (min-width: 600px) {…} /* Medium devices (landscape tablets, 768px and up) */
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {…} /* Large devices (laptops/desktops, 992px and up)
*/
@media only screen and (min-width: 992px) {…} /* Extra large devices (large
laptops and desktops,
1200px and up) */@media only screen and (min-width: 1200px) {…}
Media Queries For Menus
In this example, we use media queries to create a responsive navigation menu, that varies
in design on different screen sizes.
Large screens:
Home
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
Small screens:
Home
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
Example
/* The navbar container */.topnav { overflow: hidden;
background-color: #333;}/* Navbar links */.topnav a { float:
left; display: block; color:
white; text-align: center; padding: 14px 16px;
text-decoration: none;}
/* On screens that are 600px wide or less, make the menu links stack on top
of each other instead of next to each other */@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
.topnav a { float: none; width:
100%; }}
Media Queries Simple Examples
One way to use media queries is to have an alternate CSS section right inside your style sheet.
The following example changes the background-color to lightgreen if the
viewport is 480 pixels wide or wider (if the viewport is less than
480 pixels, the background-color will be pink):
Example
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) { body {
background-color: lightgreen; }}
The following example shows a menu that will float to the left of the page if
the viewport is 480 pixels wide or wider (if the viewport is less than
480 pixels, the menu will be on top of the content):
Example
@media screen and (min-width: 480px) { #leftsidebar
{width: 200px; float: left;} #main
{margin-left: 216px;}}

Definition and Usage
The rule is used in media queries to apply different styles for different media types/devices.
Media queries can be used to check many things, such as:
- width and height of the viewport
- width and height of the device
- orientation (is the tablet/phone in landscape or portrait mode?)
- resolution
Using media queries are a popular technique for delivering a tailored style
sheet (responsive web design) to desktops, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones.
You can also use media queries to specify that certain styles are only for printed documents or for screen readers (mediatype: print, screen, or speech).
In addition to media types, there are also media features. Media features
provide more specific details to media queries, by allowing to test for a
specific feature of the user agent or display device. For example, you
can apply styles to only those screens that are greater, or smaller, than a
certain width.

Always Design for Mobile First
Mobile First means designing for mobile before designing for desktop or any
other device (This will make the page display faster on smaller devices).
This means that we must make some changes in our CSS.
Instead of changing styles when the width gets smaller than
768px, we should change the design when the width gets larger than
768px. This will make our design Mobile First:
Example
/* For mobile phones: */ { width: 100%;}@media only screen and (min-width:
768px) { /* For desktop: */ .col-1 {width: 8.33%;} .col-2 {width: 16.66%;} .col-3 {width: 25%;} .col-4 {width: 33.33%;}
.col-5 {width: 41.66%;} .col-6 {width: 50%;} .col-7 {width: 58.33%;}
.col-8 {width: 66.66%;} .col-9 {width: 75%;} .col-10 {width: 83.33%;} .col-11 {width: 91.66%;}
.col-12 {width: 100%;}}

CSS Syntax
@media not|only mediatype and (mediafeature and|or|not
mediafeature) { CSS-Code;}
meaning of the not, only and and keywords:
not: The not keyword inverts the meaning of an entire media
query.
only: The only keyword prevents older browsers that do not support media queries with media features from applying the specified styles.
It has no effect on modern browsers.
and: The and keyword combines a media feature with a media
type or other media features.
They are all optional. However, if you use not or
only, you must also specify a media type.
You can also have different stylesheets for different media, like
this:
<link rel=»stylesheet» media=»screen and (min-width:
900px)» href=»widescreen.css»><link rel=»stylesheet» media=»screen and (max-width:
600px)» href=»smallscreen.css»>….

Media Query Syntax
A media query consists of a media type and can contain one or more
expressions, which resolve to either true or false.
@media not|only mediatype and (expressions) { CSS-Code;}
The result of the query is
true if the specified media type matches the type of device the document is
being displayed on and all expressions in the media query are true. When a media query is true, the corresponding style sheet or style rules are
applied, following the normal cascading rules.
Unless you use the not or only operators, the media type is optional and the
type will be implied.
You can also have different stylesheets for different media:
<link rel=»stylesheet» media=»mediatype and|not|only (expressions)»
href=»print.css»>

Add a Breakpoint
Earlier in this tutorial we made a web page with rows and columns, and it
was responsive, but it did not look good on a small screen.
Media queries can help with that. We can add a breakpoint where
certain parts of the design will behave differently on each side of the
breakpoint.
Desktop
Phone
Use a media query to add a breakpoint at 768px:
Example
When the screen (browser window) gets smaller than 768px, each column should have a width of 100%:
/* For desktop: */.col-1 {width: 8.33%;}.col-2 {width: 16.66%;}.col-3 {width: 25%;}
.col-4 {width: 33.33%;}.col-5 {width: 41.66%;}.col-6 {width: 50%;}
.col-7 {width: 58.33%;}.col-8 {width: 66.66%;}.col-9 {width: 75%;}
.col-10 {width: 83.33%;}.col-11 {width: 91.66%;}.col-12 {width:
100%;}@media only screen and (max-width: 768px) { /* For mobile phones: */
{ width: 100%; }}
More Examples
Example
Hide an element when the browser’s width is 600px wide or less:
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) { div.example { display:
none;
}}
Example
Use mediaqueries to set the background-color to lavender if the viewport is
800 pixels wide or wider, to lightgreen if the viewport is between 400 and 799 pixels wide.
If the viewport is smaller than 400 pixels, the background-color is lightblue:
body { background-color: lightblue;}@media screen and (min-width:
400px) { body {
background-color: lightgreen; }}@media
screen and (min-width: 800px) { body {
background-color: lavender; }}
Example
Create a responsive navigation menu (displayed horizontally on large screens and vertically on small screens):
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) { .topnav a {
float: none; width: 100%;
}}
Example
Use media queries to create a responsive column layout:
/* On screens that are 992px wide or less, go from four columns to two
columns */@media screen and (max-width: 992px) { .column {
width: 50%; }}/* On screens that are 600px wide or less, make the columns stack
on top of each other instead of next to each other */@media screen and (max-width:
600px) { .column { width: 100%;
}}
Example
Use media queries to create a responsive website:
Example
Media queries can also be used to change layout of a page depending on the
orientation of the browser. You can have a set of CSS properties that will only
apply when the browser window is wider than its height, a so called «Landscape»
orientation.
Use a lightblue background color if the orientation is in landscape mode:
@media only screen and (orientation:
landscape) { body {
background-color: lightblue; }}
Example
Use mediaqueries to set the text color to green when the document is
displayed on the screen, and to black when it is printed:
@media screen { body {
color: green; }}@media print { body { color: black;
}}
Example
Comma separated list: add an additional media query to an already existing one, using a comma (this will behave like an OR operator):
/* When the width is between 600px and 900px OR above 1100px — change the
appearance of <div> */@media screen and (max-width: 900px) and
(min-width: 600px), (min-width: 1100px) { div.example {
font-size: 50px; padding: 50px;
border: 8px solid black; background: yellow;
}}

Media Queries For Columns
A common use of media queries, is to create a flexible layout. In this example, we create a layout that varies between four, two and full-width columns, depending on different screen sizes:
Large screens:
Medium screens:
Small screens:
Example
/* Create four equal columns that floats next to each other */.column {
float: left; width: 25%;}/* On screens that are 992px
wide or less, go from
four columns to two columns */@media screen and (max-width: 992px) {
.column { width: 50%; }}/* On screens that are
600px wide or less, make
the columns stack on top of each other instead of next to each other */
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) { .column { width:
100%; }}
Tip: A more modern way of creating column layouts, is to use CSS Flexbox (see example below).
However, it is not supported in Internet Explorer 10 and earlier versions. If you require IE6-10 support, use floats (as shown above).
To learn more about the Flexible Box Layout Module, read our CSS Flexbox chapter.
To learn more about Responsive Web Design, read our Responsive Web Design Tutorial.
Example
/* Container for flexboxes */.row { display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;}/* Create four equal columns */.column { flex: 25%;
padding: 20px;}/* On screens that are 992px wide or less, go from
four columns to two columns */@media screen and (max-width: 992px) {
.column { flex: 50%; }}/* On screens that are 600px wide or less, make
the columns stack on top of each other instead of next to each other */
@media screen and (max-width: 600px) { .row {
flex-direction: column; }}

Min Width to Max Width
You can also use the values to set a minimum width and a maximum width.
For example, when the browser’s width is between 600 and 900px, change the
appearance of a <div> element:
Example
@media screen and (max-width: 900px) and (min-width: 600px) { div.example {
font-size: 50px; padding: 50px;
border: 8px solid black; background: yellow; }}
Using an additional value: In the example below, we add an additional media query to our already
existing one using a comma (this will behave like an OR operator):
Example
/* When the width is between 600px and 900px OR above 1100px
— change the appearance of <div> */@media screen and (max-width: 900px) and (min-width:
600px), (min-width:
1100px) { div.example {
font-size: 50px; padding: 50px;
border: 8px solid black; background: yellow; }}
Media Query Syntax
A media query consists of a media type and can contain one or more
expressions, which resolve to either true or false.
@media not|only mediatype and (expressions) { CSS-Code;}
The result of the query is
true if the specified media type matches the type of device the document is
being displayed on and all expressions in the media query are true. When a media query is true, the corresponding style sheet or style rules are
applied, following the normal cascading rules.
Unless you use the not or only operators, the media type is optional and the
type will be implied.
You can also have different stylesheets for different media:
<link rel=»stylesheet» media=»mediatype and|not|only (expressions)»
href=»print.css»>
CSS Media Queries — More Examples
Let us look at some more examples of using media queries.
Media queries are a popular technique for delivering a tailored style sheet to different devices. To demonstrate a simple example, we can change the background color for different devices:
Example
/* Set the background color of body to tan */body {
background-color: tan;}/* On
screens that are 992px or less, set the background color to blue */@media
screen and (max-width: 992px) { body {
background-color: blue; }}/* On screens that are 600px or less,
set the
background color to olive */@media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
body { background-color: olive; }}
Do you wonder why we use exactly 992px and 600px? They are what we call «typical breakpoints» for devices. You can read more about typical breakpoints in our Responsive Web Design Tutorial.
