Learned historical context for web fonts and some ideas for responsive design with them (applicable to any fonts). Not long, nothing groundbreaking to me.

I liked it because I enjoyed working with type when I majored in graphic design in college (and afterwards before I switched careers), and also because I enjoyed coding during my years as an IT professional. So as a retired IT guy this caught me up to date a bit on the state of typography on the web as of 2015.

Velice dobře zpracovaná kniha o responsivním designuv souvislosti s typorafií. Skvěle mi zapadla do konceptu předchozích knih (Mobile First, Responsive Web Design, Responsive & Fast : Implementing High-Performance Responsive Design) a pěkně to celé uzavřela a rozšířila. Vypadlo mi z toho jak vlastně k tvorbě stránek přistuju podvědomě už delší dobu:

Content First - web začínáme stavět od samotného obsahu, na základě kterého vybíráme vhodné fonty a ladíme celkovou typografii.
Mobile next - následuje layoutování pro mobilní zařízení.
Progressive enhancement - přizpůsobujeme jak typografii, tak layouty pro vyšší rozlišení.

Doporučuju
