Here are some quick tips and resources for web design:

Responsive Design
CSS Frameworks: Start with Bootstrap or Foundation for easy responsive design.
Media Queries: Use them to apply styles based on screen size.
CSS Grid and Flexbox: Great for creating flexible layouts.

Accessibility
WCAG Guidelines: Follow these to make your site accessible.
Semantic HTML: Use tags like <header>, <nav>, and <footer>.
Keyboard Navigation: Ensure your site can be used without a mouse.
Color Contrast: Use tools like WebAIM’s contrast checker.

User Experience (UX)
User-Centered Design: Always design with your users in mind.
Simple Navigation: Keep it intuitive and easy to follow.
Consistent Design: Use consistent fonts, colors, and layouts.
Fast Load Times: Optimize your site for speed.

Resources
Books: "Don't Make Me Think" by Steve Krug, "Designing with the Mind in Mind" by Jeff Johnson.
Online Courses: Coursera’s Web Design for Everybody, Udacity’s Responsive Web Design Fundamentals.
Websites: Smashing Magazine, A List Apart.
