Is there a javascript equivalent to using @media query? [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can use window.matchMedia() for media queries in javascript.

for example

var mq = window.matchMedia( "(max-width: 570px)" );
if (mq.matches) {
    // window width is at less than 570px
}
else {
    // window width is greater than 570px
}
