That is similar to what I was trying to convey. Breakpoints are just that though, the _point_ at which style rules _break_ into different groupings. Viewport _ranges_ exist between breakpoints.
It is also a pet peeve of mine that breakpoints get referred to as "mobile", or "tablet". Very much agree on making content work at all screen sizes, and picking points where it makes sense to "break" at different viewport sizes depending on the content. At the end of the day, it is very arbitrary.
Thanks for the link!
- leetrout 3y agoI use all my desktop screens split in half. It drives me nuts when I get mobile layouts on a browser set to half the width of my QHD displays.
- chiefalchemist 3y agoThe other mistake I've seen with the "mobile" and "tablet" mindset is that "desktop" navs that rely on hover don't translate well when the "tablet" is desktop-esque in size. In general I prefer to presume the user is always touch-based. At the very least, that's their mindset / exportation. Personally, I get annoyed with desktop experience that use hover but don't make it mindlessly obvious that you need to use hover (to get the info I need). Clever might be clever but it's too often a shite UX.
