Web Designers use coding and software applications to design, construct and implement websites, using both creative and technical skills in a rapidly evolving industry. Web development languages are amongst the most sought-after programming skillsets, with JavaScript currently in the lead as a growing number of traditional applications move to web platforms. Web design encompasses many different skills and disciplines in the production and maintenance of websites, from creative design, scripting and database management. Accessibility remains a fundamental of any website development project, ensuing that websites are accessible by anyone, on any device, anywhere in the world.
