If you want to learn HTML and CSS in a very easy to understand format THIS IS THE BEST BOOK to accomplish that goal. Every aspect is broken down so simply that you would have to intentionally not want to understand. It covers everything in detail and the pace is perfect.

One of the things I appreciated most about this book is that it doesn't just cover the basics of responsive design; it goes into great detail about advanced techniques, such as creating fluid grids, using media queries effectively, and optimizing images for different devices.

I've been working with html and on and off for a couple of decades, but I never went in and studied the syntax and the rules from scratch. I just worked with front end design programs and would go into the back end code whenever I needed to to customize things. So I wanted to fill in some holes in my knowledge. While reading this book, I found myself having to look things up that the author just assumed that I would know- so I am not recommending this book to anyone who is a beginner or even an old school designer or someone who has knowledge of working with code but has not studied it from scratch.

There is also missing code to examples he gives in the book which took me a while to find on his website and to which seemed obvious to me that you would include in the examples.

Other than those few frustrations, I have consumed most of the data in the book and it read quite easily, and I have gained some valuable understanding in the way the two languages work together.

I also enjoyed the author's sense of humor.

Four out of Five stars.

Absolutely love this book. Best html book I have so far!!! Easy to understand and well written.

For a bit of background, I'm a self-taught developer with 5+ years experience. I have not used HTML nor CSS since HTML5/CSS1.1, so I was coming into this mostly blind.

Mr. Frain does an amazing job explaining why responsive design is so important through demonstrating every step of the process. It thoroughly details topics such as media queries, forms, responsive images, SVG and so much more. Everything you need to bring you up to speed on current practices are all wonderfully laid out and easily referenced.

I originally had the ebook of this as a review copy but was so impressed that I knew I needed the physical in my collection. If you have any interest in web development, this is a must-have!

At a glance, love the authors humor and teaching technique. The pdf is useful because it’s hard to type code with one hand while keeping the book open. Pdf version also allows me to keep my book in excellent condition because I love books. A good idea to save time and to understand some of the concepts here would be to have a working knowledge of HTML, CSS, and web dev tools to console.log cool stuff along with using a text editor like Virtual Studio code with cool extensions to make life easier. Let’s face it though if your looking at this book you probably already have these fundamentals in your tool box. I did a course on IT prior and am enrolled in a front end web development course. Enjoy, and buy with confidence! Welcome to the community of aspiring or already computer programmers!

This is the book I needed, right when I needed it.

My HTML skills had atrophied and I need to write web pages that were responsive. This clearly written book allowed me to raise my skills and pull off the assignment with little fuss. I have not read the entire book yet, but it's a keeper. I have no qualms about recommending it.

Fantastic book that is a real pleasure to work through. I really appreciate the color printing which makes most images much more interesting and concise. I wished that more publishers would chose printing in color, even with a slight raise in cost.

Ask any graphic designer what they want most from digital projects and they will probably tell you: 'I want control over layouts, fonts and images to look exactly like my layouts'. This book delivers a great amount of information to help get you there.

This delivers a solid foundation in HTML5 and CSS, for prospective front end web designers/developers, and should be used as a reference manual - not a step by step how-to-guide.

All I need now is a reference book on javascript and I'm good to go!

Responsive Web Design with HTML5 and CSS - Fourth Edition is exactly what I was looking for. I bought it because it came highly recommended, and it already feels like the right guide for my coding journey. Compared to other references, this book actually provides clear answers to the kinds of questions I usually struggle to find elsewhere. I’m looking forward to working through it step by step as I build my skills.

I love this book. The explanation and examples are excellent. And by the way, Mr. Frain, the jokes are excellent, and I was never bored anywhere in the book. I'm looking forward to the next edition.
