What is device-agnostic (device agnosticism)?

Device agnosticism, or device-agnostic, is the capacity of a computing component to work with various systems without requiring any particular adaptations. The term can apply to either hardware or software. In an IT context, agnosticism refers to anything designed to be compatible across the most common systems.


What is device agnostic design?

Device agnostic design takes the focus from content and makes it design first. Before a website's content is written, the web developer will think about how it will show on a particular device. This is done to improve the user experience. Often, this is confused with responsive design. However, responsive design simply refers to a website that adapts to different devices' changes in screen size. On the other hand, device agnosticism requires a broader range of compatibility.


What is a device-agnostic approach?

A device-agnostic approach promotes the compatibility of core functionality across software and devices. For example, a device-agnostic mobile application (app) is compatible with most operating systems such as Android, Apple iOS or Microsoft Windows. Further, it may be functional on different devices, including notebooks, laptops, desktop computers, smartwatches, tablet PCs and smartphones. A device-agnostic website is designed to accommodate visitors using mobile devices, desktops or televisions to visit the site. A device-agnostic peripheral device operates with common computing platforms, typically connecting wirelessly.
