Breakpoints are used to separate the height or width of the graphic windows in sequential-steps and provide for the case in which a visual redesign is needed to display changes in an appealing manner. Breakpoints work with the screen's min-width and max-width, which enable our website to function differently at different sizes. Min-Width: Refers to everything greater than or equal to the given screen size. Max-Width: Refers to everything equal to or less than the determined screen size. The measurements that establish our Breakpoints Media queries are:
Extra small devices (phones, less than 768px)
No media query since this is the default in Bootstrap.
Small devices (tablets, 768px and up)
@media (min-width: @screen-sm-min) { }
Medium devices (desktops, 992px and up)
@media (min-width: @screen-md-min) { }
Large devices (large desktops, 1200px and up)
