What is a web application?
Our Orlando web development experts explain.
A Web application, often called a webapp, is an application that is accessed via a web browser over the internet or local network. It is coded in a browser-supported language such as HTML, JavaScript, PHP, ASP.NET and others.
Web applications are popular because the only software needed to run one is your internet browser. The ability to update and maintain web applications without distributing and installing software on potentially thousands of client computers is a key reason for their cost effectiveness and efficiency.
