What is a breakpoint?

Home  Dictionary  Breakpoint
 

A breakpoint is the range of predetermined screen sizes that have specific layout requirements. At a given breakpoint range, the layout adjusts to suit the screen size and orientation.

Material Design provides responsive layouts based on the following column structures. Layouts using 4-column, 8-column, and 12-column grids are available for use across different screens, devices, and orientations.

Each breakpoint range determines the number of columns, and recommended margins and gutters, for each display size.
