We have large react application without using any UI framework, we build all UI component our own.
Now we need to make landing page portion responsive (it's part of the application), and we need to add a lot of #media query.
The first thing come to my mind is tailwindcss library that could help on that, it's more lightweight than bootstrap, and materialUI.
But I am not sure would that would be a best practice here to include a whole UI utility for responsiveness, or if not, is there other way to achieve responsiveness without dealing with a lot of #media query?
You could try using the CSS clamp function. This function takes
in three arguments. The first being the minimum value, the second
one the preferred value and a maximum value. For example:
.element {
width: clamp(100px, 75%, 300px);
}
And here's how you would do the exact same thing with media queries:
.element {
width: 75%;
}
#media (max-width: 768px) {
.element {
width: 100px;
}
}
#media (max-width: 1200px) {
.element {
width: 300px;
}
}
Here's a link to the documentation on the CSS clamp function:

I hope this helped you.

I tried to use media query within CSS that would work only on web front page. ID of the front page is defined within its body as index. This front page uses basically two columns (.aside and .main) and I want to avoid it on the front page but still use it on others.
When I try this CSS without specifying the ID, the .aside column does leave (on all pages), but once I try to add the #index (to use this only on the front page) it stops working.
#media only screen and (min-width: 500px) {
#index {
.aside.col-lg-pull-9 {
right: 100% !important;
}
.main.col-lg-push-3 {
left: 0% !important;
}
.aside.col-lg-3 {
width: 0% !important;
}
.main.col-lg-9 {
width: 100% !important;
}
}
}
The ideal way to handle this problem is as Hidden Hobbes stated—by using a preprocessor such as SASS. SASS is transpiled to CSS, which is then loaded the browser. It eliminates repetitive CSS, which makes development faster, and code easier to understand.
Depending on what framework (if any) you're developing in, you should be able to find the appropriate SASS/SCSS module to use in your project. If you're currently not using a framework, I'm partial to suggesting HarpJS, which includes several preprocessing modules for CSS and HTML.

the suggestion to add #index was good, but I kept a mistake in the previous code (dot before aside and main), the code below works well and it allows me to conditionally format the web based on the fact which link is actually viewed.
#media only screen and (min-width: 500px) {
#index aside.col-lg-pull-9 {
right: 100% !important;
}
#index main.col-lg-push-3 {
left: 0% !important;
}
#index aside.col-lg-3 {
width: 0% !important;
}
#index main.col-lg-9 {
width: 100% !important;
}
}
I need a media query (or similar) using pure CSS, HTML or possibly LESS (as long althogh pre-compiled won't work) to apply a particular class to an ID depending on the screen height. I'm setting classes defined by Add2Any - not css properties.
jsfiddle
What I want to do is set the div #add2any to this for small screens.
<div id="add2any" class="a2a_kit a2a_default_style">
Otherwise I want this:
<div id="add2any" class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 a2a_default_style">
Is this possible, and how?
Looking for a non-javascript/not Jquery solution to avoid time lag and having a <div> for each style and showing only the relevant one.
Background
The idea is to change the layout and size of the AddToAny bar for small screens, so instead of 32px images it displays a totally different style of compact bar, with less buttons, and using AddToAny's classes means future changes they make would not be dependent on fixed css in my stylesheets. Browser compatibility is important.
CSS so far
#media screen and (max-height: 430px) {
.a2a_button_google_plus, .a2a_button_pinterest, .a2a_button_print { display:none;}
#add2any a, hr#add2any, hr#add2any a, .a2a_divider { font-size: 15px; padding-top:2px; padding-bottom:-2px; }
.a2a_divider { top:5px ; position: relative}
}
Edit
Unable to find solution from any of these, I'm using foundation framework.

**Edit 2 **
Suggestions of using Less or Sass from this question seem like overkill, since the solution would be needed on every page.
Self-hosting the script and adding some javacript to it might be a better choice, the class names look certain to remain the same even if the script changes since all Customize instructions encourage direct use of AddToAny's class names.
Edited
If you have this html:
<div class="a2a_kit a2a_default_style">
<div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 a2a_default_style">
You can make a media query like this:
/* first state */
.a2a_kit { display: block; }
.a2a_kit.a2a_kit_size_32 { display: none; }
#media screen and (max-height: 430px) {
/* reverse behaviour on max-height 430 px */
.a2a_kit { display: none; }
.a2a_kit.a2a_kit_size_32 { display: block; }
}
You just need to set up modified styles in your media queries:
#add2any {
/* any styles you want to apply all the time */
background-color: blue;
width: 100px;
color: white;
}
#media (min-width: 420px) and (max-width: 760px) {
/* styles when screen is greater than 420px wide but less than 760px */
/* omitting the 'and (max-width: 760px)' would cause these styles to apply at any width above 420px unless overridden by another media query */
#div1 {
background-color: red;
width: 300px;
color: yellow;
}
}
#media (min-width: 760px) {
/* styles when screen is greater than 760px wide */
#div1 {
background-color: green;
width: 600px;
}
}

*if you don't want to style based on the ID, you can add a unique class and style that
I have an company's employee team page I am working on HERE.
My problem is that the employee's images will not scale down when they appear on mobile.
My CSS is like this:
#media (max-width: 767px) {
.employee-image {
max-width: 85%;
max-height: 85%;
}
}
Maybe I have conflicting CSS somewhere? I do not know.
Page link: http://texasca.com/team
CSS Link: http://texasca.com/includes/team.css
It looks like you are using bootstrap. In bootstrap you have a helper class called .img-responsive. You can replace .employee-image with .img-responsive and I think you will get the desired result.
To be more clear - Just add the img-responsive class to the desired images.
I am looking for how to remove specific images with media queries. I am using HTML/CSS for a webpage.
Here is the code I currently have, which does not work (it was experimental):
#media (min-width:0px) and (max-width:1200px) {
LEVEL 1.png, level 6.png, http://placehold.it/160x600, http://placehold.it/100x100 {
display:none;
}
}
Any suggestions would be great, thanks.
Just give the images a class and then in the media query:
.that-class-name {
display: none;
}
Also, you should probably remove min-width: 0. I'm wondering if something less than 1200px would be better for for max-width as well. That's very wide.
Here you have to add a class inside the your media query
#media (min-width:0px) and (max-width:1200px)
.img { display: none; margin: 0 auto;} // your image class or can be img tag
}
and just now i answered the same question Here
So I'm using two media queries on my page:
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen and (max-device-width: 1099px)" href="./src/css/narrow.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen and (min-width: 1100px)" href="./src/css/main.css" />
The main.css one loads by default, but when the browser is re-sized below 1100px, it simply loads no stylesheet, therefor the entire page renders no styling.
Anybody have any clue what I'm doing wrong? Also, isn't it possible to use media queries inside of "main.css"? So I can only alter certain elemnts based on browser width, instead of loading a whole new stylesheet? Thanks much guys :)
Yep you can do this all in the main stylesheet, so something like this:
#media only screen and (max-width: 1099px){
/* css here */
}
#media only screen and (min-width: 1100px){
/* css here */
}
Actually I also noticed you had max-device-width: on so this will only target ipads/iphones etc which is probably why you weren't seeing this stylesheet on the desktop
The alternative is to use Javascript/Jquery to detect the screen size and load a different stylesheet based on that screen size, but Adam's solution is probably better unless you need to separate your style sheets for a particular reason.
This article will give you all the information you need using jquery - http://css-tricks.com/resolution-specific-stylesheets/
You can also use multiple queries - I make a new one every time I fine a width that doesn't look quite right.
#media (max-width:319px) {
// styles
}
#media (min-width:320px) and (max-width:479px) {
// styles
}
#media (min-width:480px) and (max-width:479px) {
//styles
}
etc..., etc...
I'll also usually built the queries on each element that needs them. I find that when you put ALL your rules for the a media query in one section of your stylesheet things get confusing to maintain.
For example:
div.box {
width: 100%;
}
#media (...) {
width: 80%;
}
#media (...) {
width: 60%;
}
etc...
Then on another element that needs resizing I'll do the same thing:
div.otherbox {
width: 100%;
}
#media (...) {
width: 80%;
}
#media (...) {
width: 60%;
}
etc...
