`device-width` CSS media feature

View on MDN ↗

[!NOTE] To query for the width of the viewport, developers should use the width media feature instead.

The device-width CSS media feature can be used to test the width of an output device’s rendering surface.

Syntax

The device-width feature is specified as a <length> value. It is a range feature, meaning that you can also use the prefixed min-device-width and max-device-width variants to query minimum and maximum values, respectively.

Examples

Applying a special stylesheet for devices that are narrower than 800 pixels

<link
  rel="stylesheet"
  media="screen and (max-device-width: 799px)"
  href="https://cdn.example.com/narrow-styles.css" />
