Document how Magnolia implements the principles of responsive Web design. This 
should be a feature article that introduces the reader to the approach, makes 
an argument in favor of RWD, and walks through features that implement RWD in 
Magnolia CMS.

The RWD approach relies on three technical ingredients: fluid grids, flexible 
images and media queries. Magnolia has been practicing responsive design since 
4.3.
* The STK and the static HTML prototype have a fluid grid that allow page 
elements to float.
* Media queries defined in a theme select an appropriate CSS based on viewport 
size and the type of device.
* The imaging engine creates images in different sizes on-the-fly, based on 
variation rules.
* Device Detection module allows you to identify the requesting device and 
resolve an appropriate template and theme.
