How it works

1

Describe your layout

Enter breakpoints defined, fixed-width components, longest unwrapped text, and nested layout depth.

2

Get a responsive-gap score

Responsive Gap weighs breakpoint coverage, fixed sizing, text overflow risk, and layout nesting depth.

3

Fix and re-test

Add breakpoints, switch to fluid sizing, and test in-between widths, then re-check.

Frequently asked questions

Why test in-between widths, not just breakpoints?

Most layout bugs appear at the widths between your defined breakpoints, not exactly at them — a 3-breakpoint design can still break at 850px.

How many breakpoints do I actually need?

3 (mobile, tablet, desktop) covers most MVPs; add more only where content genuinely needs a different layout at an in-between width.

What counts as a fixed-width component?

Any element sized in hardcoded pixels rather than percentage, flex, or grid units — these are the most common source of horizontal scroll and overflow bugs.
