What is a Web
Application?
A web application is nothing but a computer program that uses a web browser to perform a specific
function. Contact forms, for example, are web apps present on many websites.
As a web application is a client-server program, it has a client-side and a server-side. Here, the
client refers to the program the individual uses to run the application. It is a part of the client-server
environment where many computers share data. A typical example of a web application is the
database. Here, the user enters data through the client-side (front-end), while the server-side
(back-end) of the application stores and processes the information.
Web Apps vs.
Mobile Apps
Mobile apps are made exclusively for mobile gadgets and are suitable for
Android, iOS, and Cross-platform operating systems. Usually, mobile apps are
mobile-first, meaning they work effectively on smartphones, tablets, or other
handheld mobile devices. Most mobile apps work offline too. Examples include
Google Maps, Amazon Kindle, Uber, etc. On the other hand, web apps function
only when you have internet connectivity. A web app functions in real-time in a
web browser with CPU resources. As long as you have adequate internal
storage, you can download a mobile app from an app store or play store.
Types of Web
Applications
Client-side refers to everything
the user sees at the end-user
side, such as text, images, videos,
forms, and the other UI. Client-
side web applications are written
using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript,
and they work in a web browser.
CLIENT-SIDE WEB
APPLICATION
These are web apps that can be coded
in several programming languages
such as Python, C+, Ruby, PHP, etc. If
you develop an app with just the
server-side, then the outcome of any
changes in the form submission,
sections, and data updates will create
a new HTML file and cause the web
page to reload.
SERVER-SIDE WEB APPLICATION
Single-page applications are designed to
work in a browser and do not require
reloading while in use. Most of our daily
apps, such as Facebook, Twitter, Google
Drive, Gmail, etc., are single-page apps.
Single-page web applications offer an
unmatched user experience as the user
doesnโ€™t have to wait for page reloads.
SINGLE-PAGE WEB APPLICATION
Web Application Development
Technology Stacks
Due to its simplicity and multifunctionality, MySQL is one of the most
preferred databases utilized for web application development.
DATABASE TECHNOLOGIES
To develop the client-side of an app that the users interact with, you can
choose highly efficient front-end JavaScript frameworks.
FRONT-END TECHNOLOGIES
Frameworks such as Go, Ruby, Java, Django & Python are some of the most
powerful back-end development technologies.
BACKEND TECHNOLOGY
Benefits
Web application development is faster
and more economical than building native
apps.
SPEED AND COST
Web applications can be programmed to
run on any operating system. Due to their
cross-platform capabilities, web
applications can adapt well to Android,
iOS, Mac OS, and Windows phones.
CROSS-PLATFORM CAPABILITIES
A web application runs on the deviceโ€™s
browser using an accessible URL. Modern
web applications are compatible with all
browsers, such as Google Chrome, Internet
Explorer, Firefox, and Bing.
BROWSER COMPATIBILITY
Development Process
The first step is to
define the problem
you want to solve
with a web
application and
collect all the
relevant information
needed for app
development.
CONCEPTUALIZE
The designing phase
involves creating a
wireframe for
communicating the
solution to target users.
Then, the developers can
consider designing
elements that will
provide an enjoyable
user experience to the
target audience.
DESIGN AND
BUILD
Whether it is an
automated or manual
web application,
testing for the web
application is an
ongoing process
throughout the
software development
lifecycle.
TEST AND
IMPLEMENT
You must buy a domain
and choose a hosting
provider to create a server
location for the app. We
help you choose shared
hosting, dedicated hosting,
or cloud hosting based on
your requirements.
HOSTING AND
MAINTENANCE
Of late, chatbots are gaining
popularity, as many companies are
incorporating these virtual
assistants on their web application
tools. A prime example, Google
Assistant, is a popular chatbot that
we all know. Chatbots are enabling
companies to deliver more
personalized content to the users
and engage them better.

TRENDS
Internet of Things (IoT) is another
exciting web app trend you canโ€™t
afford to ignore. Digital
transformation has increased the
number of connected devices all
over the world.

To get a high SERP ranking and get to the
top of your industry inquiries, you will have
to optimize your web application for mobile
and web platforms. Search engine
optimization is crucial to bring potential
leads to your application and boost your
brand awareness.
