Web Development is responsible for creating the millions of websites and webpages comprising the
internet. These pages can be as simple as basic text, or as complex as web applications which are
complete programs in their own right. Web developer skills include programming, as well as elements of
design and content production. Web Development often involves integration with multiple data
sources, other internal and external software systems, and knowledge of the workings of the internet.
