2. What to Check for on Mobile & Tablet View
- Ensure the revolution slider is at the proper height and all the elements are visible on-load and are stacking properly.
- All headers and background images show the correct part of the photo or graphic. We do not want the images to be zoomed in or cutting off important parts of the image.
- The spacing should be consistent between the sections. Look for big spaces taking up the screen space, elements that are touching, or elements overlapping each other that should not be.
- For consistency, all elements in a section should have the same alignment (left, center, right).
- Header text should not be smaller than the paragraph text. Check for any words touching each other, whether side-by-side or above and below.
- Paragraph text should be a minimum of 15px for readability.
- The slide-out menu should match the branding of the rest of the website and include the call-to-action buttons from the desktop menu.
- Check the main call-to-action buttons on more complicated designs to ensure they are clickable and not overlapped by an element.
