How Responsive Design Changed the Game

Before responsive design, websites were rigid — optimized for desktop screens and painful to use on mobile. Then came the mobile revolution.

With the rise of CSS media queries, flexible grids, and fluid images, developers could finally build one site that adapted to every device. This shift transformed user expectations and became the standard for web design.

Responsive design didn’t just improve usability — it reshaped SEO, accessibility, and digital strategy. Businesses quickly learned that if a website didn’t look good on a phone, it didn’t matter how great it looked on desktop.

Today, responsiveness is a given — but it all started with a bold idea: the web should look beautiful everywhere.
