# RFS ## About RFS stands for Responsive Font-Size, easy to remember, easy to use. It’s a desktop-first approach which automatically calculates the correct font-size for every screen width. Desktop-first approach means you just have got to define your font-size for big screens and the font-size will automatically decrease for smaller screens. RFS is a SCSS-mixin which generates the responsive css for you. ## The main advantages of using RFS - Font-sizes will rescale for every screen width - Super easy to use, no need to define mappings for each font-size - Font-sizes of all text-elements will always remain in relation with each other - Rem-based font-sizes will allow the user to change his default font-size in his browser. People with bad vision can therefore set their font-size bigger to increase readability. ## What does this algorithm do? The algorithm splits the calculation of the font-size in 2: - 1 Static font-size for bigger screens - 1 adaptive font-size which decreases when the screen-width of your browser decreases. This font-size is calculated in a media-query with css’ calc-function. There are some configuration variables which can influence the font-size decreasing. ## The code This input (SCSS): ```scss .title { @include rfs(60); } ``` Will generate this (CSS): ```css .title { font-size: 3.75rem; } @media (max-width: 75rem) { .title { font-size: calc(1.35rem + 3.2vw); } } ``` ## Live demo http://codepen.io/MartijnCuppens/pen/ZBjdMy
