What is a good way to check a freelancer’s past work with CSS?
Look at their portfolio. A portfolio shows websites they've made. Visit the websites to see if you like them. Check how the sites look on different devices.
How can I agree on what the CSS freelancer will deliver?
List all the tasks you want done. Include changes like colors and layout. Agree on a timeline for each part. This helps both of you know what's expected.
What questions can I ask to ensure the CSS expert understands responsive design?
