jQuery Mobile Responsive Design

What is Responsive Design?

Responsive design is an approach to web design that makes web pages render well on a variety of devices and window or screen sizes. This is achieved by designing flexible layouts that adjust to the device's screen size, and by using responsive images and media queries that adjust the content to fit the screen.
