Stepped vs scaling root font size

[netlover]

Hi,
Is it better to use stepped or scaling for the root font size? The client’s site will be accessed via both mobile/table and desktop PCS.

Hey @netlover,

Stepped and Scaling has its purpose so one is not better than the other.

Stepped relies on the built in media queries so it will scale your root font size based on that.

Scaling will dymaically scale between a range of minimum and maximum font sizes and breakpoints that you specify.

To determine what’s best for your project, you need to try both. Setup a test page and first test Stepped then resize your browser. Next, test Scaling then resize your browser to see its effect.

Thanks.
