2020 is another exciting year for Web Design as lot of new web technologies have been introduced. In this blog I am going to talk about five web design trends that may play important role in this year.
Perhaps the most exciting news for web design this year is WebXR API is now available in Chrome WebXR is the next version of WebVR which now includes all VR an augmented reality devices sensors and controller supports.
Now web developers can create a full immersive experience of virtual reality on their website without worrying about fragmentation of VR headsets and controllers we can expect to see more exciting VR web design this year.
Since WebGL 2.0 stable release since 2017 we keep seeing more and more stunning web design and utilize it three.js is one of the most popular WebGL JavaScript library that drives thousands if not millions 3D web sites web developers can now working with shaders and create amazing visual effects games and animations easier in an ever and definitely we are going to see more awesome WebGL websites in 2020.
SVG and SVG filter is one of the upcoming web design training this year it allows you to create a stunning and complicated effect without a single JavaScript line needed this realistic water of reflection or squiggly text effect are products of SVG filters or you can combine SVG with CSS to create curved DIVs and animations their ability to scale responsibly combine with small size is the reason why is it's gaining popularity.
Website loading speed and responsiveness are now part of search engine ranking minimal design again is continuing to be a strong trend with fewer elements to load and less JavaScript to process minimal design can make your website load faster while still providing an elegant look.
Why Less Is More. In its most stripped-down definition, minimalism is about designers expressing only the most essential and necessary elements of a product or subject by getting rid of any excessive and, therefore, unnecessary components and features.
Lots of people preferred dark color scheme when browsing web for various reasons eyestrain, battery saving, etc. and some even try to use plugin to force it on websites for this reason there is a new CSS feature called preferred-color-scheme which detect if your browser is on dark mode this allows web designer to change their website color scheme accordingly.
In this year we are going to see websites use dark color theme or start offering dark mode switch more often. That's all for the top 5 web design trend in 2020 I'm sure this year we will find lots of amazing web design.
