Introduction to Web Development

1. Understanding Web Development


Definition: Web development is the process of creating websites and web
applications for the internet or intranet.
Types of Web Development:
Front-End Development: Focuses on the client side, dealing with the visual aspects
of a website that users interact with.
Back-End Development: Involves server-side programming, managing databases, and
ensuring that the front end can interact with the server.
Full-Stack Development: A combination of both front-end and back-end development.
2. Key Technologies in Web Development
HTML (HyperText Markup Language): The standard markup language used to create web
pages.
Structure of HTML: Uses tags (e.g., <h1>, <p>, <div>) to define elements on a page.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets): A stylesheet language used to describe the
presentation of HTML documents.
Styling Techniques: Fonts, colors, layouts, and responsive design using media
queries.
JavaScript: A programming language that enables interactive features on websites
(e.g., forms, animations).
DOM Manipulation: Changing the Document Object Model (DOM) using JavaScript to
update content dynamically.
3. Front-End Frameworks and Libraries
React: A JavaScript library for building user interfaces, developed by Facebook.
Vue.js: A progressive framework for building user interfaces, known for its
simplicity and flexibility.
Bootstrap: A CSS framework for developing responsive and mobile-first websites,
featuring pre-designed components.
4. Back-End Technologies
Server-Side Languages:
Node.js: JavaScript runtime for server-side programming.
Python: Often used with frameworks like Django or Flask.
PHP: A server-side scripting language commonly used for web development.
Databases:
SQL Databases: Relational databases such as MySQL and PostgreSQL.
NoSQL Databases: Non-relational databases like MongoDB, used for handling
unstructured data.
5. Web Servers and Hosting
Web Server: Software that serves web pages to clients (browsers). Common web
servers include Apache and Nginx.
Hosting: Providing server space and resources to make a website accessible on the
internet.
Types of Hosting: Shared hosting, VPS (Virtual Private Server), dedicated hosting,
and cloud hosting.
6. Version Control Systems
Git: A distributed version control system for tracking changes in code.
GitHub: A platform for hosting and sharing Git repositories, enabling collaboration
among developers.
7. Responsive Web Design
Definition: An approach to web design that makes web pages render well on various
devices and window or screen sizes.
Techniques:
Fluid Grids: Layouts that resize based on the size of the screen.
Media Queries: CSS rules that apply styles based on device characteristics (e.g.,
width, orientation).
8. Web Development Workflow
Planning: Defining the website's goals, target audience, and key features.
Design: Creating wireframes and prototypes to visualize the layout and user
experience.
Development: Writing HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code to build the website.
Testing: Conducting usability tests, debugging, and ensuring compatibility across
different browsers and devices.
Deployment: Launching the website to a live server for public access.
Maintenance: Updating content, fixing bugs, and improving features over time.
