What is Cross-platform compatibility?

Cross-platform compatibility refers to the ability of a product or service to work seamlessly on multiple platforms or devices. This is increasingly important for designers as more and more people use a variety of devices and platforms to access digital content. Ensuring that a design is cross-platform compatible means that it can be accessed and used by a wide range of users, regardless of their device or platform.

One example of cross-platform compatibility is a website that can be accessed and used on both desktop and mobile devices. The design should be responsive, meaning that it adjusts to the size and capabilities of the device being used. This allows users to have a consistent experience regardless of whether they are accessing the website on a laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
