    2 Part Answer

    Part 1: To answer "why people are using min-width over max-width?":

    It has to do with design flow. Typically, with min-width patterns, you're designing mobile-first. With max-width patterns, you're design desktop-first.

    Going mobile-first...

    body {
    /* default styles here,
    targets mobile first */
    }

    @media screen and (min-width:480px) {
    /* style changes when the screen gets larger */
    }

    @media screen and (min-width:800px) {
    /* And even larger */
    }

    Conversely, using max-width, is desktop-first then adds queries to make styles mobile-friendly
