Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
Web design and development is the process of creating websites and web applications. Web design focuses on the visual and user experience aspects, including layout, colors, fonts, and responsiveness across devices. It often involves tools like HTML, CSS, and design software (e.g., Figma or Adobe XD). Web development, on the other hand, handles the functionality and structure of a website. It includes front-end development (what users interact with, using HTML, CSS, JavaScript) and back-end development (server-side logic, databases, using languages like Python, PHP, or Node.js). Together, design and development ensure a website is both visually appealing and functionally robust.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Great communication and kept up to date with the development
