Web development
Web development refers to the process of creating and maintaining Web sites and Web applications on the Internet. It covers a wide range of tasks, from designing the user interface and developing functionality to managing databases and optimizing performance.
Two main areas in web development
Within Web development, there are two main areas: frontend and backend. The front end deals with the visual aspect of a Web site, using programming languages such as HTML, CSS and JavaScript to create the user experience. This includes layout, colors, fonts and interactive elements.
The backend side involves the underlying technologies that make the Web site work. This is where programming languages such as Python, PHP, Ruby and databases such as MySQL are used to process, store and retrieve data. Security, server management and optimizing speed are important aspects of backend development.
