--description--
Instead of using em
or px
to size text, you can use viewport units for responsive typography. Viewport units, like percentages, are relative units, but they are based off different items. Viewport units are relative to the viewport dimensions (width or height) of a device, and percentages are relative to the size of the parent container element.
The four different viewport units are:
vw
(viewport width):10vw
would be 10% of the viewport's width.vh
(viewport height):3vh
would be 3% of the viewport's height.vmin
(viewport minimum):70vmin
would be 70% of the viewport's smaller dimension (height or width).vmax
(viewport maximum):100vmax
would be 100% of the viewport's bigger dimension (height or width).
Here is an example that sets a body
tag to 30% of the viewport's width.
body { width: 30vw; }
--instructions--
Set the width
of the h2
tag to 80% of the viewport's width and the width
of the paragraph as 75% of the viewport's smaller dimension.
--hints--
Your h2
tag should have a width
of 80vw.
assert(
__helpers
.removeCssComments(code)
.match(/h2\s*?{\s*?width:\s*?80vw;\s*?}/g)
);
Your p
tag should have a width
of 75vmin.
assert(
__helpers
.removeCssComments(code)
.match(/p\s*?{\s*?width:\s*?75vmin;\s*?}/g)
);
