Basics

The most important property/value pair is background-size: cover, which dynamically scales the background image to cover the viewport even when it's resized. Responsive full background image can be achieved using this simple style rule:

background: url(background-photo.jpg) center center cover no-repeat fixed;

For a faster page load on small screens (i.e., mobile devices) a scaled-down version of the background image is served using a media query.
