We have our target value of 568px, and the width of the design—our context—is 900px. And if we plug those two values into our stalwart formula: 568 ÷ 900 = 0.631111111111111 That’s right: another impossibly long number, which converts to a percentage of 63.1111111111111%. Keep that percentage in the back of your mind for a moment. Now, let’s open up

Over the next few chapters, we’ll be developing Robot or Not together, using flexible grids, flexible images, and media queries. Now, maybe you’re not one for suspense.
