How do web applications in OutSystems respond to different device types?

Web applications in OutSystems are designed to be responsive, meaning they automatically adjust their layout and design based on the characteristics of the device being used to access them. This responsiveness allows applications to provide an optimal viewing experience across a wide range of devices, including desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

The responsive design ensures that elements such as images, text, and buttons resize or rearrange according to the screen size and resolution. This capability is essential for modern web development, as it enhances usability and accessibility, making applications more user-friendly regardless of the device being used.

In contrast, fixed-size applications would offer the same experience regardless of the device, leading to potential usability issues on smaller screens. Similarly, limiting adaptation only to mobile devices or not adapting at all would restrict the flexibility and user experience across various platforms. Thus, responsiveness is a key feature in creating effective web applications in OutSystems.
