Well said. "Responsive" isn't a technology, but a design decision
(these days, arguably a requirement). Regardless of the language used,
decisions need to be made, and the expression of those decisions in code
needs to be tested.
Some things are easier in one language than another, and other things
easier in other languages.
But all of them require commitment to providing a good UX, clear
thinking about the layout goals, and good familiarity with whatever
language will be used to express those goals.

Personally, when it comes to programming I prefer textual tutorials, so
I can copy-and-paste code. But any tutorials folks in our community
want to deliver would be welcome.
