CSS
Why is mobile-first (min-width media queries) generally preferred over desktop-first (max-width)?

max-width media queries are deprecated and no longer supported
B
Mobile-first builds up progressively without needing to override earlier decisions; desktop-first requires undoing desktop assumptions at each narrower breakpoint, which tends to accumulate conflicts
C
There is no real difference, it's purely a style preference with no maintenance impact
D
Mobile-first is required by the CSS specification
