Web Development

Web Development refers to the process of creating and maintaining websites and web applications that are accessible over the internet. It encompasses various aspects including web design, content creation, client-side and server-side scripting, network security configuration, and database management. Web developers use a variety of programming languages and technologies, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and frameworks like React and Angular, to build user-friendly and responsive websites. The field continually evolves with advancements in technology, impacting the methodologies and tools used to enhance user experience and functionality.
