Using CSS media queries, you can create a website or web page with responsive design. Media queries allow you to target certain CSS styles based on the characteristics of the user's device, such as width, height, orientation, resolution, etc.

For example, using a media query to create a responsive website would look something like this:

css
Copy code
@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) { /* CSS code to make website responsive */ body { font-size: 14px; } }

By declaring a max width of 600px, this media query will apply the styles specified inside the query only when the screen size is less than 600px.

The syntax for a media query consists of the @media keyword followed by the condition that needs to be matched for the styles to be applied.

Answered in 5.31 seconds

You can make a Bootstrap container responsive using the CSS media queries @media (max-width: 767px) to specify the width at which the layout of a container should change. You can use this for responsive design for your website. Here is an example code:

css
Copy code
@media (max-width: 767px) { .container { max-width: 540px; } }

how to make sure logo fits device

🤖 SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 6.43 seconds

To make sure a logo fits a device, you can use CSS media queries and set the max-width of the logo to match the maximum dimensions of the device it should fit.

For example, if you had a max-width of 100px and a max-height of 60px that needed to fit a mobile device, you could use the following:

css
Copy code
.logo { max-width: 100px; max-height: 60px; } @media (max-width: 768px) {    /* Adjust the max-width and max-height for mobile devices */   .logo { max-width: 100px; max-height: 60px; } }

👩‍💻 Technical question

What are media queries? Explain with syntax?

🤖 SheCodes Athena says:

Answered in 4.38 seconds

Media queries are a CSS3 technique used to modify the appearance of a website or web application for different devices and screen sizes. The syntax for a media query is as follows:

css
Copy code
@media only screen and (max-width: 600px) { /* your styles go here */ }

This will execute the styles in the code block only if the browser's width is less than or equal to 600px.

👩‍💻 Technical question

I am adding media queries so that all my content fits in devices that are max-width 390px but at the bottom of the footer there is a tiny gap

🤖 SheCodes Athena says:

You might need to add some margin or padding to your footer to account for this. For example, you can find the footer element in your HTML and add padding-bottom in your CSS file like this:

css
Copy code
footer { padding-bottom: 10px; }

If you are also adding media queries, you may also need to adjust the margin or padding in the media query so that it is consistent across all devices:

css
Copy code
@media (max-width: 390px) { footer { padding-bottom: 10px; } }

That should be enough to account for the gap at the bottom of the footer. Read more about media queries. Good luck!

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence. AI bots are able to learn from conversations with users and expand their knowledge this way.

SheCodes Athena will help you with technical questions about your code using artificial intelligence to find the answer. Imagine a super powerful human who has memorized everything on the internet and can access that knowledge in a matter of seconds. 🤯

SheCodes Athena can answer most coding-related questions, even complicated ones! It can even find bugs in your code and tell you how to fix them in just a few seconds. Impressive, right?

Just remember we're still in testing mode so the AI may return strange or incorrect replies. Feel free to message us if this happens!

SheCodes Athena can only reply to coding-related technical questions. The same type of questions you would ask in the channels on Slack.

For questions that are not coding-related, write us here 😃

You should treat Athena like a SheCodes team member, so always be polite! 😊 Ask your questions as detailed as possible, just like you would do on Slack.

Here are some examples:

- Prettier isn't working on my VS Code. How do I fix this?

- If you have a longer question that would require an entire HTML file or more than 1000 characters, post it in the designated weekly channels on Slack! 😃

Athena was the Greek goddess of wisdom, among other elements. She received her name from the city of Athens, which she is known for protecting.

Much like the goddess Athena, SheCodes Athena is also incredibly wise and can solve complicated coding puzzles in a matter of seconds! 😍

Not likely. AI can automate tasks and make developers' jobs more efficient but it can't fully replace the human ability to deal with complex software. And AI will still require human developers to supervise and improve it further.

So developers may see their tasks change but they won't be replaced by AI. 👩‍💻🤝💻
