Media Queries Range Syntax

This article discusses the confusion and layout bugs caused by using traditional min-width and max-width media queries with the same breakpoint value. It demonstrates a common navigation pattern where both elements become hidden at 300px. The solution is to use media query ranges from the Media Queries Level 4 specification, which employ comparison operators like <= and > for more readable and accurate breakpoints. The article highlights readability benefits and easier debugging, making a strong case for adopting range syntax in responsive CSS.
