What is Web Applications: A Web application (Web app) is software that is stored on a distant server and distributed via the Internet using a browser interface. Because web applications are accessed over the internet, they do not require downloading. A web browser such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari can be used to access a Web application. A web app requires a Web server, an application server, and a database to run. Client queries are handled by web servers, while the application server completes the specified operation. Any type of information can be stored in a database.

Benefits of Web Applications: ● As long as the browser is compatible, any common web application can operate or be accessed on any operating system, including Windows, Mac, and Linux. ● Because a web programme does not need to be installed on the computer's hard disc, it solves any difficulties connected to space constraints. ● All users get access to the same version of the online application, which removes any concerns with compatibility. ● Web-based apps are adaptable. A user can work from anywhere in the world as long as he has access to the internet. ● It only takes a few seconds to register a new account by entering a username, password, and URL. ● As a result of the cloud's availability, storage capacity is now almost limitless, as long as you can buy it. ● Unlike native apps, which are limited to a single platform, web applications can be developed to run on a range of operating systems. ● Any normal online application is created using simple programming languages such as HTML and CSS, which are widely used and understood by IT professionals.
