A few years back, 'Web Development' term was used for the process of developing a website. This was when web development just started to gain popularity. However, with the growing need of having browser based experience within the applications, developers started a new venture called web applications. The reason for its popularity was quick development, increased manipulation of media and content, and of course the aesthetics. Despite of its popularity, security remained its main concern for the data-critical organizations. After a while, developers managed to flawlessly handle the security concerns of the organizations. During this time span, Web Development semantically comprised of both website and web application development.
During the past few years, into this group joined another term called Mobile Apps. Just recently before this addition, native apps was widely looked for, but now organizations have realized that the power of a native app is achievable in lesser cost with equal in security, aesthetics, speed and power. This realization was hard to achieve but now web-based mobile apps is a new trend. Everything is turning web-based; web technologies inspired millions and will continue to inspire due to the fact that they are easily configurable, developed, interconnected with other apps, usable. So, now Web Development encompasses almost every type of application that you can see on the screen; it's a cobweb of applications of different kinds and styles; hence Web Development is the most suitable word for today's development trend.
