In the early 1960s, scientists started talking about the concept of network or distributed network. This is a system where several computers are connected together and they talk together. The computers also share resources between one and another. For instance. a printer could be installed on one computer and be used by several other computers on the network. This concept has been extended to several other resources beside printers. The network concept grew to become the World Wide Web (or the Internet) whereby works on one part of the World can now be displayed on other systems anywhere all over the World an at the same time. Web browsers such as Microsoft Edge, Safari, Chrome, Firefox and so on have made this possible. Websites are designed by website designers.
Website design, as well has further grown as the media types used for viewing the browsers mentioned above continue to change. There are now small screen devices such as smart phones (iphone, Android and others). Websites now need to be designed to display on devices such as ipad notebook, laptop desktop and well as on the smart phones. Consequently, website designers must now design responsive websites Responsive websites are websites that display correctly on all types and sizes of media screens.
