What Does It Mean If A Website Is Responsive?

Responsive web design (RWD) is a website UI design approach aimed at crafting web pages that changes appearance / layout depending on the screen size and orientation of the device being used to view them. RWD make use of media queries, flexible grid-based layout, flexible images and media, and CSS to create dynamically changing web pages.

RWD tries to resolve the problem of designing for multitude of device screens - smart TV, desktops, laptop, tablet or mobile phones. RWD promote single codebase to support all devices than the traditional approach of having different codebases for each type of device.

RWD results in websites that respond to the device screen size and orientation that are accessing them, displaying the information in an optimal way for the available screen size. As the device viewport grows or shrinks, the web page layout or its elements size, location, visibility changes for optimal viewing. For example, a three-column desktop design may change to two columns on a tablet and a single column on a mobile.

How To Check Responsive Web Design?

A "non responsive website" will render almost the same on all sort of devices, be it a desktop or a mobile. Whereas a "responsive website" adapts to screen size, and orientation of device accessing them. A responsive website, for example, may have horizontal menu bar on desktop which changes to hamburger icon placed on either top corners on mobile.

So how to check if a website is responsive? There are multiple approaches to check website responsiveness. Best approach to test will be to check your website on multiple actual devices ranging from small screen device like wearable watch, smartphone to large screen devices like laptop, desktop and smart TV. If your website is not rendering properly on any of the device then the website is not responsive at least for that device type.

As you must have realized by now, the best approach is not the most economically feasible test. It is not feasible to buy all devices to test website responsiveness. As a work around many companies has come up with device emulators plugins which are software mimicking specific device screen size, resolution and other capabilities. Google has come up with Android Emulator from Google for testing website responsiveness on android mobiles.

Another recommended approach for testing website responsiveness is to access the website in a browser by adjusting the browser width and height in accordance to the target device viewport resolution. If the website renders properly in the browser then in most cases the website will render correctly in the actual device too.

Adjusting browser dimensions to mimic device resolutions works fine if you want to test your website responsiveness on one or two devices, but if you want to test against large number of devices then manually adjusting browser dimensions will be a tedious and error prone task. And also, you have to remember resolutions of all the devices you want to test your website on.
