This process is mainly the writing of mark up and codes, web engineering, client-side/server-side scripting, web server and network security configuration and e-commerce development.
Web design is pushed by a driving force of ingenuity and creativity, an ever-growing set of new tools and technologies to build more dynamic and interactive websites that are user-friendly, easy-to-use and ubiquitous. Information and Communication and Technology through web design influences transformative communications, sociotechnical influences and behavior modelling. As a result of technological advancement and innovation, deeper understanding of cybernetic and algorithms, a plethora of tools and technologies are available. These tools and techs make web design possible and effective while offering different capabilities, specialties, functions and distinct features.
