first i check the device width if width <= 700 px is mobile = true and show mobile output(html,js,css) else mobile = false is mean device is a desktop and show desktop output (other html,js,css)

how I can do this?

CodePudding user response：

you shouldn't use javascript for this work. You should use css media queries. Take a look at this

CodePudding user response：

If you must handle it through JavaScript, you can use the window.screen.width and window.screen.height properties to check the devices height and width. But as a Comment already suggested, you might want to look into media-queries in CSS they are pretty powerful.

Possible usage

if(window.screen.width <= 700) {
    // do mobile logic
} else {
    // do desktop logic
}

You can use media query to handle what will do by its screen size.

Here is to handle it with JS,

Search around on google for "responsive design". It is a better way to do what you want.

A good starting point:
