How to resize bootstrap popover?

What are the standards when creating a website?

  • I just want to know the following: Is there a standard size (dimensions) for the entire document? How can I create a website that doesn't mess up whenever I resize the window? How can I do this without Bootstrap?

  • Answer:

    Is there a standard size (dimensions) for the entire document? Not per se, but 960 is a good all-purpose default width. If you're designing specifically for high-performance machines i.e. desktops and laptops, you can go up to 1200 if you have a good reason to. See the next question/answer for more. How can I create a website that doesn't mess up whenever I resize the window? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Responsive_web_design is the accepted practice for creating a site that looks good on every resolution. Not only can it create a good experience for mobile, but it lets you design a site to fully occupy wide monitors as well, if that has a benefit. Responsive design involves the ability of a site to scale seamlessly throughout window and screen sizes, while employing a few hard breakpoints (if you've ever seen a site with only a phone mode running on a full-screen, it looks like crap) to to accommodate significantly different form factors like phones (3.5-4.5 inches), microtabs (4.5-6 inches, and lamentably referred to as "phablets"), tablets (6-10 inches), and monitors. There are also ways to query device type to optimize for a screen size versus a resolution (up till now a proxy for screen size). How can I do this without Bootstrap? WordPress, as much of a turd as it is, does have responsive themes already, like http://www.elegantthemes.com/gallery/divi/.

Other answers

There are many standards for building a website, depending on what aspect of the website you are building. To answer your specific questions: 1) The standard width of a document is a moot point these days, because most modern websites are built responsively to work on devices with many different sized viewports. The standard "viewport" is a more appropriate stand-in for "standard width." The Internet is still most commonly accessed on desktops, however,* and so in that case if the site you are making is not responsive, you want to target the average size viewport for desktops. 2) The best way is to make the website responsive. 3) You can use CSS media queries to make a responsive website without Bootstrap. If you are looking for another framework alternative, Gumby is a good framework that allows you to make responsive websites: http://gumbyframework.com. * If your audience is a US demographic, that is.
