Web Development FAQ
Web design and web development are related fields in the process of creating a website, but they involve distinct skills and responsibilities.
Web Design:
- Primarily concerned with the visual aesthetics and user experience of a website.
- Involves graphic design skills, understanding of color theory, typography, and layout design.

- Primarily concerned with the technical implementation of a website.
- Involves programming languages such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and knowledge of web development frameworks and tools.
- Web developers are responsible for turning the design into a fully functional website. They work on the back-end (server-side) and front-end (client-side) development. Back-end developers handle server-side logic, databases, and server configuration, while front-end developers focus on the user interface and user experience, ensuring that the website is responsive and interactive.

While some platform do the optimization automatically, it is still good idea to check and modify (if needed) elements. It is always easier to implement optimization while developing website and not to fix it later. It is also important to determine where the most traffic comes from and prioritize screen size. For example, if most of users, say 80%, use mobile phone to access your site, it is a good idea to make it look the best on a small screen rather than desktop.
