I don't have a complaint, but I do have a piece of advice. Mobile-first design is real. Developers work largely on desktops, so they make the desktop version first. Then try to use media queries to apply mobile css using max-width. This seems sensible, but just does not seem to work out well. Instead do the unintuitive thing, design it for mobile first, and then scale up to tablet/desktop using min-width to apply styles.
No matter your choice, go one way. try to avoid mixing min/max-width and the cognitive load is way less.
- obihill 10y agoThanks for your feedback. Tradition is a hard thing to break. I've come across a number of websites that fit the viewport, but don't look quite right on mobile devices and I guess it's because of the way min/max-width works, especially in different orientations. Have you had any challenges here?
