Overview: 

Application development is the process of creating software applications for various computing devices, including mobile phones, tablets, desktop computers, and servers. These applications can serve a wide range of purposes, from entertainment and communication to business and productivity. Web applications are usually coded in browser-supported languages such as JavaScript and HTML, CSS as these languages rely on the browser to render the program executable. Some of the applications are dynamic, requiring server-side processing. Others are completely static with no processing required at the server. The Web Developer bears the responsibility for the coding, design, and layout of the website according to the company’s specifications. A website is more important than anything for every business when it comes to reaching clients online.

Mobile application development is the process to making software for smartphones and digital assistants, most commonly for Android and iOS. The software can be preinstalled on the device, downloaded from a mobile app store or accessed through a mobile web browser. Mobile app development technologies are changing at a fast pace and are certainly among the actively growing sectors in the global app market. Technologies and trends indeed drive mobile application development.
