Please make this series a daily one because it's so useful and your voice is so calming I like learning from you and I can't wait for the next episodes 🌸
When I was way younger I hated the history part of lessons because I was eager to dig right into the practical part of the subject. But while learning more and more about it I was even more interested in the history part of it. So I now view the history of a subject as a great motivational aspect of the specific subject. Great job there! Loved that one!
I always start my Computer Lessons with a little bit of history of the application or Programming Language that we are about to study. It is true that we need to know where we came from and what happened before us so we can really understand the context at present and in the future. Glad to watch this content. Thanks Ran!
Hey Ran, I've followed your journey since the beginning and have enjoyed watching this new series. Thank you so much for making quality content and being part of a sharing culture. I look forward to more!
Thanks for the trip down memory lane! I built my first website in 1995. It’s worth noting that those late 90s- early 00s sites were so crowded because people didn’t like to scroll. Everything had to be “above the fold” and business owners couldn’t decide what was important so they put everything there 😂. Thank goodness that all changed with mobile devices and people got used to scrolling.
hi there i know I'm like 3 years behind but so far i like your teaching .and the fact that its for free helps me allot ,because currently i don't have the funds to pay for studies. God bless you
I met David Carson last year at OFFF. He closed it and it was amazing! He even stayed with some of us taking pics and assigning! He is so humble and funny! A living legend
I am just so overwhelmed of RUclips. I have been paying attention to the content that’s been churning out and just so grateful that we have this information in front of our thumbs on demand for free. Thank you sincerely for this.
Wow, this was so interesting. I would not have thought the history would be so relevant to understanding modern graphic design but you really brought them together in a pertinent way.
Thanks for this brief and at the same time structured presentation of history. Finally, I got that instead of trying to memorize art styles and their distinctive features I can take a look at social context, and see how pendulum swings from one point to another - from realism to minimalism, from skeuomorphism to flat design and back to neomorphism.
my favorite period is now. With your demonstrations of webgl on web pages, I feel like the more interactive and attention grabbing - without scrolling, blinking banners lol - it adds more of an 'in person' experience that can cause users to become submerged and possibly stay on your site longer... if for nothing else but just to stare at the graphics :)
I was listening to each of the words you talked and nothing boring there. I feel so excited to learn those histories and newer information about Web design. Eagerly waiting for your next video. I will watch it again and again. Thanks for bringing us this lovely tutorial.
Thanks for the great Video. I had been listening to podcasts about art, and Alfons Mucha, who was the pioneer of art nouveau, got rejected from a fine art university in the Czech Republic before he came to Paris. Great things come from people who don't let other people stop them from doing great things :) I am going to binge watch your channel, thanks for the great content :)
I built my first website in 1997 and studied web design in 1999. Talk about ancient history!! Css is so ingrained in our workflow now, I can't even remember how html formatting worked back then.
Thanks so much Ran for this! I love history and I do agree that its important to know the past in order to create a better future! Keep up the amazing, valuable and easily consumable content! :)
Hey Ran! This was a great intro in the history of web design - love that you added in accessibility at the end - that's what I want to focus on and hopefully make a career out of as i continue to learn skills to become a web designer!
Interesting to hear about the development of graphic art design. I really appreciate what you said about not letting all the new, cool and developing technology overpower the need for good, easy to read design.
Hello Ran, I am so grateful for this awesome course, where you teach us so much valuable knowledge for free. I think this course already changed the way I think about Webdesign( for example related to history of webdesign or seeing the correlation between many tools). Please keep on making, keep on expanding this courses’ content:)!
Took art history and I still have a pretty even take on sll it it. There isn't a favorite that stands out from the rest. I can find something that fascinates me at every period of time in art history.
The 90'th design characteristics always puts a smile on my face. Why? Because I was there, creating those gifs that didn't match the background color, animating text with the marquee and blink tags, putting it all together in frames and/or tables. Unfortunately, that's where I still am today. Your videos are great, helping me getting out of this old smelly box of legacy. Thanks!
I am sure your skill has great value, just needs a little upgrade. There is always a special trend in design and web design, that mixes the old school design with new trends. Check Sea Punk, brutalism. Also, in japan they are using their old web style design and programming since from beginning. Check them also, maybe with some classes, you can find your skills appreciated and needed on their market. We can learn new things at any age.
Have this series pinned to my tabs now haha. My favorite period has to be the Swiss Design one. This was really interesting and fun to learn. Thank you Ran!
I designed through most of those later periods - starting in the mid 90's via Geocities, Flash, CSS 1-3, After Effects/Video integration etc. - a lot of that commercially. But now I just design for fun for my own sites via Wordpress and Gutenberg/FSE. I agree the clean look has made a major comeback...good cos it was getting a bit much all these people doing crazy stuff with HTML5. Animation should be discrete and minimal or have a reason.
Wow! This was such a beautiful rundown! I feel so bad that I’m just getting to watch this 2 years later. If I had watched this and practiced during the lockdown, I will not be where I am today. 😢
Thank you for creating this! Lately, I am more leaning into web design and shifting from finance. I found this very helpful! I think the minimal web designs are better for me.
Thanks, great video! About your question, I like Bauhaus graphic designs because that school incorporated minimalism, geometric shapes, and simplistic.
Its quite true if you dont know the history you can't understand the present. Thanks for your video..lots of important information about the subject Buenos 👌 ❤
The history of what you want to learn, no matter what is that, could really be helpful. I didn't expect to see The web design history. tnx. It was great.
Fav period: Art Nuveau. I also like the more industrial look of Art Deco. I love the fast trains, plains and Monopoly style designs lol. But I also love the flowery designs of AN. I'm also into the Vienna Secession (Gustav Klimt and the guys). Not sure if I'll ever bother making something like that in web design tho. It's sadly far easier to go for Bahaus lol.
Accessibility is a good way forward for web design. Can't argue with that. I actually get a bit frustrated with in-page popups now, especially when they come up when I'm reading something and have the tiniest close button I've ever seen or I have to scroll around to play "find the close button" because of poor mobile formatting. It must improve metrics of some kind, which is why it's so popular, but it ruins the experience for me and is ultimately distracting. This is especially notorious now with different implementations of GDPR compliance being so inconsistent/unfamiliar and configurations that are way too dense. Add in poorly-implemented layouts for ad placements (jumping/resizing/jitter/obscured parts of the content/forced formatting) and you just have a non-functional web page. Way too many elements can take away from the experience and make it more difficult to view content (and ultimately cause me to leave to find something else). It almost feels like UX has taken steps backward in this regard. I can't imagine the frustration of someone with less dexterity trying to navigate some of these pages. I would not blame them if they left, because I'd do the same.
I hated to visit webpages in the early 2000. They believed that more graphic and nonsense efffects would make their site better, far from it. It just made the whole experience a livin hell, it was so hard to find what you really wanted to find on the webpage. Thank god the minimalistic design is king now.
Hi, Ran. Very insightful. Really appreciate your depth of historical knowledge. Let me say that, while I do appreciate beautiful, symmetric design, I often wonder how the owners of these platforms can make a sale when viewers are distracted by all of those on-screen moving parts. Sure do appreciate your course. Thank you so much.
This was a great informative video. It's probably because Im used to seeing modern designs for websites today but I like a good minimalist but with a little bit of dynamic element to it kind of websites.
2040 the V.R. and A.R. Web Design, just kidding : ) ...I liked a couple of them. The Swiss of the 1954 and also the Grunge Style were the best ones, I think. I'd love to mix those two together.
Actually, Art Nouveau appropriated wholesale from Asian art, specifically Japanese woodblock prints that in turn were influenced by Chinese prints and narrative scroll dating. In fact, the use of abstract and flat forms were directly taken from Asian art. The fact that Western media has dominated the world from the mid 19th Century onward has made the "art history" very Western-centric and often fails to attribute design and art elements to their origin elwhere (not just Asian but the Mid-East & Africa).
Now the web design will change again, with the web 3.0 and the Metaverse I'm sure 3D is going to be the new trend in web.
You know you care about what you do, when you do a course on it’s history 🥰🥰🥰
thanks 😅
Please make this series a daily one because it's so useful and your voice is so calming I like learning from you and I can't wait for the next episodes 🌸
Oh I wish I could! Making the videos as fast as I can
Sorry I thought you already prepared the videos before uploading them.. Thank you again😍
why would anyone dislike this???.....
2030: Web Hologram Design.
Boom 🤯
Not too far from the VR interfaces people need now.
It's already here
Interested!❣
you will own nothing and youll be happy 👹

Absolutely amazing course. Binge watching right now. Thank you from my heart

Appreciate you sticking around Tiffany 🙌

please keep up the good work, im so excited about every new video in this series, love from Slovakia!❤️
Thanks Kerim!
I pretty much like all the web designs through out the years, we wouldn't be where we are if it wasn't for the original designs, that's evolution.
I'm starting a certification in web design at DeVry in a month. Your free courses are exactly what I needed to prepare me. Thank you!
hi there i know I'm like 3 years behind but so far i like your teaching .and the fact that its for free helps me allot ,because currently i don't have the funds to pay for studies. God bless you
You're very welcome!
I met David Carson last year at OFFF. He closed it and it was amazing! He even stayed with some of us taking pics and assigning! He is so humble and funny! A living legend
*signing
Wow! Sounds epic!
What a wonderful unique approach to teaching, this is already very different from many alternatives.
Thanks! Happy to hear!
This is great, I lived through the evolution of changing design, but never thought of the reactionary aspect of it, now I can't unsee it.
I am just so overwhelmed of RUclips. I have been paying attention to the content that’s been churning out and just so grateful that we have this information in front of our thumbs on demand for free. Thank you sincerely for this.

Timeless content, Ran! Thank you so much for this!
One of the few online courses on RUclips that I find really helpful. Thank you so much for this!
I was listening to each of the words you talked and nothing boring there.
I feel so excited to learn those histories and newer information about Web design.
Eagerly waiting for your next video. I will watch it again and again.
Thanks for bringing us this lovely tutorial.
Means a lot to hear that Tonmoy 🙌
I love the intro
Thanks! Wonderful work from Nik, best editor ever!
This Episode was very insightful

One of the best introduction to art, and web design history. Liked it much especially how the web looked like in the early days.
Thanks so much Ran for this! I love history and I do agree that its important to know the past in order to create a better future! Keep up the amazing, valuable and easily consumable content! :)
I like how I learned more about graphic design from this course than all of what I did in college.
I do appreciate your clear information of history of web design!!
Hey Ran! This was a great intro in the history of web design - love that you added in accessibility at the end - that's what I want to focus on and hopefully make a career out of as i continue to learn skills to become a web designer!
Great series ! Look through history, people tend to create things that react to surroundings and make them easier to understand all the time.
Interesting to hear about the development of graphic art design. I really appreciate what you said about not letting all the new, cool and developing technology overpower the need for good, easy to read design.
I love LOVE the Art Nouveau period. Maybe not for web design but for illustration....I LOVE Mucha and his work....
Hello Ran,
I am so grateful for this awesome course, where you teach us so much valuable knowledge for free.

Definitely Apple. I'm surprised on how minimalistic they were already in that time. They were wayy ahead of their future
The 90'th design characteristics always puts a smile on my face. Why?

I loved this class, particularly
The background history was very much needed. You have explained it so well with examples.
The my fav and most helpful RUclipsr. Please keep it up and look forward to the next class 🔥🔥
Thanks Michael!
My favorite was Noueauv and Grunge yet I love the consistency
Have this series pinned to my tabs now haha. My favorite period has to be the Swiss Design one. This was really interesting and fun to learn. Thank you Ran!
Swiss design? Could you tell me more?
I have been an instructor in various venues. You sir are an excellent instructor.
The best I've ever seen web design class ❤️❤️❤️ I am your students thanks for gave a awesome info .
Thanks Arif!!
Nice Intro! Thanks for making this video!
I designed through most of those later periods - starting in the mid 90's via Geocities, Flash, CSS 1-3, After Effects/Video integration etc. - a lot of that commercially. But now I just design for fun for my own sites via Wordpress and Gutenberg/FSE. I agree the clean look has made a major comeback...good cos it was getting a bit much all these people doing crazy stuff with HTML5. Animation should be discrete and minimal or have a reason.
Wow! This was such a beautiful rundown! I feel so bad that I’m just getting to watch this 2 years later.
If I had watched this and practiced during the lockdown, I will not be where I am today. 😢
Honestly, like 2020 and I am very lucky to be a part of 2020 and great to be here with FLUX.
Thank you for creating this! Lately, I am more leaning into web design and shifting from finance. I found this very helpful! I think the minimal web designs are better for me.
2007 was my best web design period
Thanks, great video!
About your question, I like Bauhaus graphic designs because that school incorporated minimalism, geometric shapes, and simplistic.
Its quite true if you dont know the history you can't understand the present. Thanks for your video..lots of important information about the subject Buenos 👌 ❤
Thank you for making this course sir. Really we are lucky to watch these videos for free:)
Hey Ran, this is amazing stuff! Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge!
Happy to!
0:38 wow that is some philosophy there, not limited to web design but to our existence as well.
The history of what you want to learn, no matter what is that, could really be helpful. I didn't expect to see The web design history. tnx. It was great.

Ran, I loved this video. Sharing it with everyone I know ❤
Zune literally nailed it. It looks like a website that can still be considered modern.
Hi, Ran. Very insightful. Really appreciate your depth of historical knowledge. Let me say that, while I do appreciate beautiful, symmetric design, I often wonder how the owners of these platforms can make a sale when viewers are distracted by all of those on-screen moving parts. Sure do appreciate your course. Thank you so much.
Like animation and interactive design but love Art Nouveau
Really exciting course! Thank you Flux academy team!
Thanks for making the course free.
art nouveau and other article made this video interesting
Just started this. Really enjoying the course so far
This was a great informative video. It's probably because Im used to seeing modern designs for websites today but I like a good minimalist but with a little bit of dynamic element to it kind of websites.
Amazing Video Ran!!! The only history class that I pay a lot of attention 😁
