  7. The idea that the development of a website should actually respond to the environment a user is in, and the user’s actions. This involves the platform, orientation and screen size. Ideally, when a user switches devices, the website itself should switch seamlessly, accommodating for the difference in screen resolution, the sizing of images and other computer script issues.. Instead of a business being “forced” to create a new design or develop a website or application for every new little gadget that comes out, responsive web development allows a business to create one, totally branded and awesomely cohesive site.
