What is adaptive UI design?
With adaptive design, different fixed layouts are created that adapt to the users screen size. As opposed to the more fluid responsive approach, adaptive design employs multiple sizes of a fixed design. The majority of new websites now use responsive design.
What is the difference between adaptive design and new design?
While responsive design focuses on just the device, adaptive design takes both device and the user's context into account.
Is responsive or adaptive better?
Adaptive design will (theoretically) ensure the best user experience according to whichever device the user is using to interface. Unlike responsive design, where a screen “flows” from desktop design into a smaller device's, adaptive design offers tailor-made solutions.
What is the main advantage of using adaptive over responsive design?
Adaptive designs generally load faster than responsive ones. This is because adaptive design only transfers necessary assets specific to each device. For example, if you view an adaptive website on a high quality display, the images will adjust to load faster based on the display the end user is using.
