It will be comparatively quieter but no change in routine daily works, the shops are open but restaurants and cafe are closed and they open in evening. Things pickup in evenings when people go out after breaking the fast.
Good luck.

most eateries are closed during the day. alcohol not sold during the whole month of ramadan either. not the best time to visit honestly.

well !! the best time in this holy month is the night when people break their fasting ; they pray and after that hang out in the city , they didn't sleep till they eat AL shor 4am . the resturants are closed in the moroning becuz all people are fasting so they wouldn't come to eat there , but it opens at night
during ramdan there are special moroccan meals such as ALHARIRA , SHABAKIA , Dates and Masman u 'll find it in every restaurant
if u stay there till ramdan finish u'll be lucky to celebrate Eid al-fitr with moroccan
Good luck
