Website Design vs Website Development — What is the Difference?

Before diving into the guide, it is important to understand the difference between website design and website development, as these terms are often confused:

  • Website Design (UI/UX Design) — The visual and experiential aspect of a website. Includes layout, color scheme, typography, images, icons, animations, and user flow. A web designer focuses on how the website LOOKS and FEELS.
  • Website Development (Coding) — The technical implementation of the design. Includes writing HTML, CSS, JavaScript, backend code (PHP, Node.js, Python), database setup, API integrations, and server configuration. A web developer focuses on how the website WORKS.

In reality, most modern web design and development companies offer both services as a combined package. Infowave IT has dedicated designers and developers who work together to deliver websites that are both beautiful and functional.
