Web development in simple language

The building and maintenance of websites is referred to as web development. This includes the content, design, and programming.

Content is known as king. A web site survives on the quality of its content. Editors and content providers have a crucial role here. Ultimately, it is your content that defines the design and programming that your web site will require.

Next is design, this is not purely the images but the whole experience of navigating around the web site and the experience your user gets from it. This is also known as User Experience (UX). There are many skills and tools that are required here.

Finally comes the programming. This holds everything together. Without the programming nothing else would function. The programming requires an understanding of the server the web site is resident on and the clients (browsers) that will be accessing it. Programming languages can be either server side or client side.
