MOBILE AND RESPONSIVE WEBSITE PROGRAMMING SERVICES

Designing for mobile devices
Mobile devices have quite different hardware characteristics compared with desktop or laptop computers. Their screens are usually smaller, obviously, but they also usually automatically switch the screen orientation between portrait and landscape mode as the user rotates the device. They usually have touch screens for user input.
