Pt1420 Unit 9 Research Paper

The design of the website is very unique and elegant. For a new user, it’s a little overwhelming at first but after 10 minutes of use it becomes second nature.

Devices are changing people’s lifestyles. People work and communicate with devices, which people couldn’t have even imagined 100 years ago. Interaction Design makes users’ lives more convenient by analyzing the relationship between people and devices. Interaction Design will mostly used for web and mobile applications now because users always interact with them in daily life. Especially, the navigation in a mobile application can make people’s life easier. For example, in Gmail mobile application, emails can be achieved by swiping, so that people don’t need to waste their time to read those unimportant email. Also, the designers can attract more users by unique Interaction Design. For example, snapchat’s face filters help them increase users’

Developing Web contents involves shaping and making many choices involving technical, aesthetic, and usability concerns. With the expanding technical options for communication on the World Wide Web, it is tempted to focus only on issues such as hypertext markup language (HTML) syntax, page layout, or the latest and flashiest technologies. However, there needs to be a broader approach in order to articulate the information content that is to be conveyed. There is also a need to pay attention to the characteristics and qualities of the Website as a medium for communication so that there are not merely duplicate practices intended for paper and other media.

Don’t skimp on the interface designs, if you do so then you’ll regret because today’s sophisticated visitors won’t ever give your website a second glance if they don’t feel attracted towards it or satisfied by the looks initially.

In a world where information is used and depended upon more than ever, people have begun to not only seek, but demand faster ways to access it. Potentially the most popular method of achieving this has become the internet. It is due to this fact that web designers and developers have undertaken vast amounts of research to not only speed up access to information on the web, but how to make it attract to more users. “How might they have accomplished their goal?” you may ask; to which the answer is: by appealing to the user via visual and mental attraction via design patterns and functionality intuitiveness. Color. It is what makes up the perception of our reality via light rays that we interpret through our eyes (Visible Light Waves, 2007), but why is it important? One could argue that the sole purpose of these waves is to give us vision, but color triggers so much more within our bodies. It can affect the physical processes within our bodies, our emotions, and can even communicate to us outside of the obvious visuals we perceive, based upon the culture that we reside within (Color Matters, 2012). But why is this important to web design and development? The answer is quite simple: color always affects us without us even noticing. Based upon the color scheme you use within your website, you can create a positive, or negative, reaction within your user, and this can either pull them in to your website, or make them run away from it as fast as possible (Chapman, 2010). To explore

Analyzing analytics over the past year, supports the notion that all web content needs to be available on any device, at any time. Mobile traffic is now equivalent to, or exceeds, desktop. Previous to the significant increase in mobile traffic, responsive design would be implemented, during or even after desktop design. However, recent technological advances in mobile, as well as the surge in traffic, have instilled the notion that the team needs to be designing mobile-first, and to do so requires a different approach. Fichter and Wisniewski (2016) state a valid concern; “designing and reviewing on a vast desktop screen prohibits the developer to view how the content will appear on the much smaller screen of a mobile device” (p. 68), as well as possibly affecting the functionality, and thereby inhibiting the user's experience. Designing a site with a mobile-first responsive template also has another benefit; according

Frick identifies five trends that the contemporary web developers have been adopting in 2015 to ensure sustainability of web design. The steps include; the removal of large header background images; ensuring that the web site is simpler by taking away the unnecessary design elements; application of large typography, performance and speed; and applying more CSS spites. Frick suggests that failure to follow these five steps only work to make Internet users part of the problem rather than part of the solution they are supposed to be.

Trends are born to change and prosper by time. The year 2016, more like the last several years, featured an ongoing debate about web design industry. With the start of the New Year, it’s time to look at the future of the website designs.

The Web is composed of many languages, unspoken languages written in code. These languages take a short time to learn, but years to master; and unlike spoken languages they are constantly evolving at a noticeable rate. Changing to accommodate for the webs changing functionality, as it shifted from being only scholarly to include news, entertainment, socializing, and business. In its 28 year life span the web has evolved from the most basic HTML layouts to the high functioning responsive sites people are familiar with today.

What's more, HTML5 is looking to change the way apps are developed. There will be, as

In the last ten years, design software has taken an enormous leap in functionality. Kayla Searl, an author from Bright Hub, described these leaps as an apparent game changer for the graphics world.

The aim of this paper is to historically review and compare the WordPress tool and its effectiveness against more traditional forms of Web Design. This paper will attempt to address the positive and negative elements of their respective usability based on first-hand experience of the use of both methods.

I hereby declare that the project work entitled “Past, Present and Future of Web Design and Development” submitted to the Amity University Noida is a record of an original work done by me under the guidance of Mrs. Deepa Gupta, assistant professor department of Amity Institute of Information Technology, Amity University Noida, and this project work is submitted in the partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Bachelor of science in Information Technology. The results embodied in this thesis have not been submitted to any other University or Institute for the award of any degree or diploma.

With regards to smartphones, the current leader of the pack would no doubt be the iPhone with the iTouch and iPad not far behind. Apple, Inc. has always had the best looking, posh, sophisticated and futuristic designs imaginable. This was no different when it came to designing their iPhones. When everybody had the rectangular looking phones with microscopic displays and oversized keyboards, Apple released a sleek looking device with applications and gadgets integrated that was directed to the younger generation. Although the more technology-savvy audience would know how to appreciate such a device more, the iPhone’s design attracted everyone’s attention despite their ages. Apple’s ideas are so high in demand that their competition has resorted to planning their strategies as iPhone clones, like the HTC products with their Android platforms and BlackBerry phones with their Google links.

Due to the convergence evolution, it is expected that the trend of progressive information technologies will focus more on mobile and widespread media convergence and new services to come.[3]
