Designing from the smallest screen forces priority decisions that improve every size.
Principles#
Start each screen as a 375px single column. Every desktop affordance must survive the squeeze test. Thumbs own the bottom third: put primary actions there.
Applied#
- Apply it to your next feature, not a mythical redesign
- Encode the decision as a token or component
- Write one paragraph of team guidance
- Audit an existing page against the principle
