6. Creating application database:Every application has a database that stores user information at the back-end. Therefore you should start making your application database.
Your database should be clear regarding segregating the data, primary key, secondary key, connections, etc. Ensuring the security of the database is also vital for a successful web application. 7. Front-end and Back-end:Build the front-end and back-end of your application. The frontend is visible to the user, so it should be interactive and user friendly. Whereas the back-end is not visible to the user but plays an important role in the application’s smooth functioning. 8. Testing the application:Test your web application for several inputs. 9. Get application hosting:Now it’s time to launch your web application, so you need a hosting provider. Look for a trusted server and make sure that your application doesn’t get crashed while running. 10. Launch the application:All set to go!

WEB APPLICATION VS. WEBSITES Web applications are often confused with websites. Here are a few points to understand the difference between a web application and a website.
HOW DOES A WEB APPLICATION WORK?
The web application code is written in the programming languages supported by the browser, namely JavaScript, Hypertext markup language, etc. The reason behind this is that the browser supported languages are dependent on the web browser to execute the web application. Web applications can be dynamic and static. The dynamic web applications are executed at the server-side while static web applications can run without a server. The working of a web application is simple as it is developed to interact with the client. To handle requests from the client, a web server is required, and to process the result of the client request, an application server is needed. The technologies which can be listed under the application server are ASP.elnet, cold fusion, PHP, JavaScript, etc. To understand the working of a web application, we need to go through the points below.

4. Consider yourself a user who is using a web application. When you click a button on the web application such as login, a request is triggered to the web server. The request is sent through the Internet or the user interface of the web app. The user request will be transferred to the web application server. For example, the login requests will be sent to the back-end database, which will be processed further. The web application server will process the request by looking at the database and matching the user login requirements. After verifying the user data, the application server will process the data to the web server. When the webserver gets the required information, it will display the result of the user request on the application screen. For example, the login requests will be verified, and the result will be login successful.
