Element Query CSS (EQCSS) has changed the way I'm able to design in-browser!
If you build out the styles for each block of content, starting from the narrowest width that an element could show up in browser, and add responsive styles to the element itself (What would it look like if this element was 100 px wide? What would it look like if this element was 500px wide? What would it look like if this element was 1000px wide? etc) then you can be sure that no matter where those elements show up in your layout, they will look great. You can freely rearrange elements in the layout all you want, and the elements simply adapt to the new space you've given them, and with some knowledge of their contents! Being able to use Element Queries has allowed me to approach in-browser design with the same methodology and process I used when using traditional design tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, or Inkscape for layout.
The added bonus of EQCSS is that you can fine-tune support for elements as well to prevent bugs from happening by applying CSS in situations that regular CSS can't normally reach. We can apply styles based on how many characters of text an element contains, so to accommodate a longer headline without breaking onto multiple lines we can decrease the font size if it contains over 15, or 30 characters of text.
In this demo, the two widgets at the bottom know the width where they should to be side-by-side and when they should be stacked on top of each other, and it doesn't matter whether the sidebar is visible or not, they will stack when they ought to. Using CSS @media queries wouldn't normally be able to target this kind of situation where something changes size on the page after the page loads because there's nothing different about the browser width.
