Web Design and Development Guide

Web design and development involves creating websites and other online tools for clients. Web design involves a combination of technical and design skills including graphic design, content creation, search engine optimization, and communications. Web design and development are increasingly referred to in more specialized terms such as “front-end development”, “back-end development”, or “user experience (UX) design”. These requires knowledge of design principles as well as coding languages including HTML/CSS, Java.
