Common Mistakes

Using max-width instead of min-width

Forgetting to add units like px

Using a value too small or too large

The min-width media feature sets a breakpoint for screens wider than the given width. Here, 600px means styles inside apply when the screen is at least 600 pixels wide.

Common Mistakes

Using min-width instead of max-width

Omitting units like px

Using unrelated media features like height

The max-width media feature targets screens up to the specified width. Here, styles apply only when the screen is 768 pixels wide or less.

Fix the error in the breakpoint code to target screens between 480px and 1024px.

CSS

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using min-width twice

Using height instead of width

Using max-height which targets screen height

To target screens between two widths, use min-width for the lower limit and max-width for the upper limit. Here, 1024px is the max-width.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a breakpoint for screens between 320px and 480px wide.

CSS

@media ([1]: 320px) and ([2]: 480px) {
  h1 {
    color: green;
  }

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Reversing min and max

Using the same media feature twice

Use min-width for the lower limit and max-width for the upper limit to target screen widths between 320px and 480px.

5fill in blank

Fill all three blanks to create a responsive font size that changes at three breakpoints: 480px, 768px, and 1024px.

CSS

body {
  font-size: 1rem;
}

@media ([1]: 480px) {
  body {
    font-size: 1.2rem;
  }
}

@media ([2]: 768px) {
  body {
    font-size: 1.5rem;
  }
}

@media ([3]: 1024px) {
  body {
    font-size: 1.8rem;
  }
}

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Mixing min-width and max-width incorrectly

Using height media features instead of width

Forgetting units like px

Using min-width for all breakpoints applies styles as the screen gets wider, increasing font size at each breakpoint.
