I have updated several of my websites to be more cleanly responsive. A responsive website will fit any layout, including phone and table.

Ankiewicz.com is built using WordPress and PHP. Monsters.net is built using Jekyll and Liquid. Both sites use jQuery and JavaScript.
Resize the following websites in your browser, or visit them on your phone and tablet:
