What is web application development
In software engineering, a web application or webapp is an application that is accessed via a web browser over a network such as the Internet or an intranet.
A web application is any application that uses a web browser as a client. The application can be as simple as a message board or a guest sign-in book on a website, or as complex as a word processor or a spreadsheet.
What is a Client?
The term client is used in Client Server environment to refer to the program that are used by various users to rum the application. In client server environment various computers share useful information with each other. The client is the applications which puts up aquery and server is the application which resolves the submitted query. Or in other words,The 'client' is the application used to enter the information, and the 'server' is the application used to store the information.
What are the Benefits of a Web Application?
A web application relieves the developer of the responsibility of building a client for a specific type of computer or a specific operating system. Since the client runs in a web browser, the user could be using an IBM-compatible or a Mac. They can be running Windows XP or Windows Vista. They can even be using Internet Explorer or Firefox, though some applications require a specific web browser.
Web applications commonly use a combination of server-side script (ASP, PHP, etc) and client-side script (HTML, Javascript, etc.) to develop the application. The client-side script deals with the presentation of the information while the server-side script deals with all the hard stuff like storing and retrieving the information.
