A mobile-first design must adapt well to larger screens.
UI elements should not stretch too wide. Content should stay focused and easy to see.
Mobile designs often stretch on big screens. This makes the layout look too wide. It ignores empty spaces on the sides. Good design uses limits. For apps with one main content area, set a maximum width for that area. Center the content on the screen. This makes the app feel like a premium tablet app. It looks good on any size monitor. Important parts stay in the user's natural view.
A designer creates a mobile app for a card game. On a desktop, the game cards stretch across the whole screen. This makes the game hard to play. The designer then sets a maximum width for the game area. The game now looks good and is easy to use on a desktop.
