I started full stack development in 2013. Was mostly working on projects pre responsive era, even when the responsive was a thing already and now for a few years I had done only backend development.Now I wanted to get back on track on web development as well, especially how to approach the responsive design. This book had everything I wanted, now i know how to approach responsive design.Besides that, this book covers a lot about best practices and techniques in Web development. That was exactly what I needed as well. I feel a lot more confident now to tackle a web project again.

Covers all the aspects

I was looking for a modern book to update myself with, since there hasn't been a new version of CSS: The Missing Manual (best css book I've read). This book just spits information that you can find on MDN about CSS and does very little explanation, it does not provide tutorials where you put together and use what you just learned.
