Web application development Is The Only Skill You Really Need The internet or the web has made its mark and cut a niche for itself away from the world of programming.It offers a world of immense possibilities including scalability, which was somehow constrained in programming. This is not to mean that the web is the perfect solution to all the ills of programming nor is it the only solution. However its positives are much greater than the pitfalls. With the introduction of the internet, the web went on to become the buzz world and took the world by storm. While it continued to rapidly expand both in scope as well as scale, at the same time, it allowed developers to troubleshoot issues as they found their way around the maze with relative ease as

opposed to core programming.

It is the undoubtedly the most sought after distributed application system, because its design including the manner in which the interfaces, such as the front end and back end relate to each other is not over complicated, and creates room to build more applications.


The language of the web development has adapted and evolved over a period of many years. Today the internet is synonymous with development in a wide variety of fields including economic, political, and communications development.

The business world has become more competitive. There is a huge need and demand for businesses to communicate with each other. This introduces the element of security of data.

Communications can take place both over private and secured networks. The basic model of web application in itself lends itself to consumers and service providers. The three basic and common tiers that make this interaction possible are the user services, business services, and data services. Each tier has its own distinct role to play within the overall context of web application services. For example, it is through the User service that consumers get to interact with the application. When the consumer gives an input, the user seo service reaches out to the business service, to validate against the business logic and procedures. Using this layer, users can perform complex activities through the application of server side programming.


Finally, the data is accessed from the final tier, the Data Service layer. Here information is stored, accessed, and updated. The database is the most common example of a data service layer and possibly the most ideal, practical solution for web applications since it is structured and logically organized. Web applications use Hypertext Markup Language, which is accessible to programmers and designers and cascading style sheets. The latter has a critical role in web architecture since it makes it absolutely easy to manage libraries, while bringing down errors and redundancy. For designers, it is a boon since it only uses simple guidelines.


So does this mean that any project is suited for web application development? Before you embark on a project, consider the availability of skills, resources, knowledge, and capabilities. Second, choosing a project is also dependent on the cost-benefit ratio and the economic advantage in taking on such a project.
