Designing with Web Standards is the seminal work that helped shape the modern web. In this influential book, Jeffrey Zeldman makes a compelling case for designing websites using standards-compliant HTML and CSS, showing how it leads to faster, more accessible, and more maintainable websites.

Through practical examples, sharp insight, and a focus on real-world issues, Zeldman explains the benefits of separating content from presentation, designing for all users (not just specific browsers), and embracing technologies that adapt to future change. The 3rd edition expands this vision to include mobile responsiveness, with contributions from Ethan Marcotte, who introduced responsive web design to the world.

Whether you’re a designer, front-end developer, or anyone building for the web, Designing with Web Standards is a must-read that will change how you think about your craft—and improve the way you build the web.
