Testing only on 16:9 screens

Read Original

The article highlights a common oversight in web development: failing to test websites on ultrawide monitors (e.g., 21:9 aspect ratio). The author argues that while these screens are not the default, their usage is growing, and websites should at least remain functional on them. The post provides a practical guide for developers to emulate custom screen resolutions (like 3440x1440) using browser Dev Tools to catch layout issues, emphasizing that ignoring such testing leads to broken user experiences.
