Responsive typography

Chapter 21: Responsive Typography

21.1 Using Relative Units

Relative units like em and rem adapt font sizes based on the parent or root element:

html {
    font-size: 16px;
}

h1 {
    font-size: 2rem; /* 32px */
}

p {
    font-size: 1rem; /* 16px */
}
            

21.2 Viewport-Based Units

Viewport-based units scale typography based on the viewport size:

h1 {
    font-size: 5vw; /* 5% of the viewport width */
}
            

21.3 Summary

Responsive typography enhances readability on all devices. The next chapter will cover CSS pseudo-elements and pseudo-classes.
