This week, the team officially launched the YUI Resposive Grid Builder. If you are unfamiliar with the concept of responsive web design it is "an approach to web design in which a site is crafted to provide an optimal viewing experience—easy reading and navigation with a minimum of resizing, panning, and scrolling—across a wide range of devices". Now, with the YUI Responsive Grid Builder, you can quickly and easily create a layout for your site that will work properly across high resolution desktop browsers all the way down to low-resolution mobile devices. RGB is an open-source project, so we encourage you to check out the source on Github, play with the examples, and review the documentation. An internet high five to Tilo Mitra (@tilomitra) for the development on this project.
