Adaptive design with dynamic serving refers to the technique of creating separate versions of a web page tailored specifically for different major devices. This means that for each type of device—such as desktops, tablets, and mobile phones—there is a distinct layout and content that are served when the user accesses the website from that particular device.

This approach allows web developers to optimize user experience by ensuring that the presentation of content is appropriate for the capabilities and screen size of the device being used. By designing multiple pages for each major device type, developers can leverage device-specific features, improve loading times, and enhance usability, ultimately leading to better engagement and satisfaction from the users.

Other strategies, such as fluid measurements and varying CSS rules, typically fall under responsive design, which aims to create a single layout that adjusts dynamically based on the screen size and orientation, rather than serving distinct versions of the page for each device. Similarly, designing purely for a mobile view or creating a single adaptable page does not encapsulate the concept of adaptive design with dynamic serving as effectively as developing separate pages for each device type does.
