Thanks to this, it can adapt to any device.<\/p>\n<p>These 4 characteristics will help you to differentiate a web application from other types of apps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">They only require a single development process (e.g. HTML) that works on all devices<\/span>. In other words, the web application adapts to any operating system.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">There&#8217;s no need to download them<\/span>. The application is hosted on a server and accessed from a browser. This means that it&#8217;s necessary to have an internet connection to access it.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">They&#8217;re accessible from any browser<\/span>. It doesn&#8217;t matter if you&#8217;re using Firefox, Chrome, Safari or any other browser, you can access the web app.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">They rank in traditional search engines<\/span>. As they don&#8217;t need to be downloaded, you will not find them in the app stores, but they will appear as a result in engines such as Google.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Although <a href=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/blog\/what-are-native-web-and-hybrid-apps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">native applications<\/a> allow more complex developments, they are also more expensive and sometimes unnecessary. The type of development you need will, however, depend on many other factors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8485\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8485\" style=\"width: 631px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8485 size-full\" title=\"someone holding a smartphone\" src=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/web-applications-design-characteristics.jpg\" alt=\"someone holding a smartphone\" width=\"631\" height=\"421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/web-applications-design-characteristics.jpg 631w, https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/web-applications-design-characteristics-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 631px) 100vw, 631px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8485\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/mw6Onwg4frY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow noreferrer\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"types\">Types of web applications<\/h2>\n<p>This time, we aim to <strong>classify the types of web apps<\/strong>. This classification is <strong>based on its function and how they are presented<\/strong>. Here are five different types of web apps, with each of their own characteristics.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"static\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">1. Static web application<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you choose to create a static web app, the first thing to know is that this kind of web application displays very little content and is not very flexible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">They are usually developed in <strong>HTML and CSS<\/strong>. However, animated objects such as banners, GIFs, videos, etc., may also be included and shown in them. They can also be developed with jQuery and Ajax.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Examples of static web application development include professional portfolios or digital curriculums.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Similarly, a webpage introducing a company could also make use of this kind of web application to display contact information or the like.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, modifying the contents of static web apps is not easy. To do this, you first have to download the HTML code, then modify it and finally upload it again to the server. These changes can only be made by the webmaster or by the development company that planned and designed the app in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4860\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4860\" style=\"width: 748px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4860 size-full\" title=\"browing the internet on an ipad\" src=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"browing the internet on an ipad\" width=\"748\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img-1-1.jpg 748w, https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img-1-1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4860\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/iFSvn82XfGo?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Taras Shypka<\/a>\u00a0via\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3 id=\"dynamic\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">2. Dynamic web application<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dynamic web applications <strong>are much more complex at a technical level<\/strong>. They use databases for loading data and their contents are <strong>updated each time the user accesses them<\/strong>. They generally have an administration panel (called CMS) from where administrators can correct or modify the app&#8217;s content including text\u00a0and images.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Many <strong>different programming languages can be used for dynamic web application development<\/strong>. PHP and ASP are the most common languages used for this purpose because they allow\u00a0you to structure the content.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Dynamic web applications usually have an Admin Panel (CMS) to make changes<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this kind of app, <strong>upgrading content is very simple<\/strong> and the server doesn&#8217;t even have to be accessed when modifying it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition, it allows the implementation of plenty of features such as forums or databases. Design \u2212 besides content \u2212 can be modified to match the administrator&#8217;s preferences.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\"><!--br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}--><\/style>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/landing\/download-ebook-apps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/CTA_YEEPLY_Guia_APP_EN.jpg\" alt=\"Ebook 1 App Descarga\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3 id=\"ecommerce\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">3. E-commerce<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If the web application is an online store or shop, its development is likely to resemble that of <strong>m-commerce<\/strong> or an <strong>e-commerce<\/strong> site. This kind of app&#8217;s development process is more complicated because it must enable electronic payments via credit cards, PayPal or other payment methods. The developer must also create a management panel for the administrator. It will be used for listing new products, updating or deleting them and managing orders and payments.<\/p>\n<p>The department store <strong>El Corte Ingl\u00e9s<\/strong> is an example of a big Spanish company that has developed an online store web application. Its web application fits mobile devices the same way a mobile application does, making it possible to interact with it as if it were a native app.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4861\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4861\" style=\"width: 748px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4861 size-full\" title=\"laptop on a coffee table\" src=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"laptop on a coffee table\" width=\"748\" height=\"432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img-2-1.jpg 748w, https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/img-2-1-300x173.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4861\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@igormiske\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\"> Miske<\/a>\u00a0via\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/Px3iBXV-4TU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Unsplash<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"portal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">4.

There is plenty of information, tutorials and guides available on the internet that will help you customise it and understand how it works. In addition to all this, it&#8217;s free.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Joomla<\/span>: this cm is the second most popular after WordPress. It doesn&#8217;t have as many users as the latter but does have a strong community and is also very intuitive.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Drupal<\/span>: it&#8217;s a free software CSM. It&#8217;s very adaptable and is especially recommended for building up communities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This kind of web application is very common among content pages: personal blogs, corporate blogs, professional blogs, news pages, articles, media, etc. You can also find here more <a href=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/blog\/web-development\/web-development-examples\/\">web development examples<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u270f\ufe0f Recommended article | <em><a href=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/blog\/best-apps-for-entrepreneurs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Best Apps for Entrepreneurs<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<h2 id=\"examples\">Web app examples<\/h2>\n<p>Many companies choose to <strong>create web apps to improve user interaction with their services<\/strong>. You might even be using some of them in daily life without even knowing it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Google<\/strong>, for example, has a web application version of all its services: Calendar, Drive, Maps, Gmail, YouTube&#8230; The web app version of these portals is very similar to the native applications.<\/p>\n<p>Another example, in this case of an e-commerce web application, is the giant <strong>Amazon<\/strong>. Again, it offers a very similar experience to the native application and also has a web application version for its Amazon Video and Amazon Music platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes, a web application development is carried out to make a mobile app accessible from a computer. An example is the instant messaging platform <strong>WhatsApp or Telegram<\/strong>. Both allow you to read your conversations, send messages, access multimedia files etc.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8489\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8489\" style=\"width: 748px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8489 size-full\" title=\"whatsapp web\" src=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/whatsapp_web_app_example.jpg\" alt=\"whatsapp web\" width=\"748\" height=\"346\" srcset=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/whatsapp_web_app_example.jpg 748w, https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/whatsapp_web_app_example-300x139.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8489\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Whatsapp Web<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<p>\u270f\ufe0f Recommended article | <a href=\"https:\/\/yeeply.com\/en\/blog\/mobile-app-development\/deep-linking-android-ios-apps\/\">Deep linking in Android and iOS applications<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2 id=\"other\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Other things to take into account<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Each kind of web application has its<strong> strengths and weaknesses<\/strong>, but let&#8217;s not forget that they ultimately remain to be a website.
