Day 25 — What My First Client Project Taught Me About Responsive Design
One of the biggest lessons from my first paid WordPress project was that a website isn't finished just because it looks good on desktop.
While building the landing page for Origin First Wellness using Elementor, I initially focused on the desktop layout.
But when I started adjusting it for tablets and mobile devices, I ran into several issues:
Sections needed different spacing.
Text and images didn't always appear in the right order.
Some elements looked fine in the editor but behaved differently on the live website.
Small alignment problems became much more noticeable on mobile.
I eventually fixed these issues and delivered the project successfully.
Looking back, I think planning responsive layouts earlier would have saved me time.
For my next project, I want to experiment with a mobile-first approach rather than treating responsiveness as something to fix at the end.
The biggest takeaway: A good website isn't just a desktop design that shrinks to fit a phone. Each screen size needs proper attention.
Still learning through real projects.
Day 25 of my freelance journey.

Love the clean layout! The lime accents give it a fresh, modern feel.
