What is a web application?
Web application means a web-based software that needs to be connected to the Internet to receive information. These applications open in the browser, so they are less restrictive than applications that must be installed. Because you can use it anywhere you have access to the Internet and a browser. Web applications usually open in any browser and provide services to the user. For example, Snap web application, to provide taxi booking services, store shopping and Snap Pay services, or DigiPay, to provide financial services, are examples of web applications.
What is the difference between web application and offline application?
Local or native applications, which we also call offline, must be installed on the device used, for example, mobile or computer and laptop. They work offline. Since these softwares are already installed on your phone or system, they have a higher speed and the information and components of the application are displayed very quickly.
But web applications depend on the Internet and must receive the required data from a server, so they have a lower speed than offline applications. But this property of them has made them available everywhere. On the other hand, they do not occupy space on your phone or laptop, and you can receive information from the server whenever you need it.
Another advantage of web applications compared to mobile and native software is that web apps are not dependent on your operating system and device and can be opened and functioned anywhere. Therefore, for someone who needs to provide an application to provide their services, design a version for Android and a version for iPhone separately. Because these types of programs are easily opened and work on both of these devices.
Also, according to the new technologies in the field of programming and software design, most of these apps are designed in such a way that they display well on the phone and desktop.
Use of web applications
New technologies have made it possible for you to design a web application, which is actually a site, and add the ability to install it like normal applications. In this way, users can install the web application in their phone like a native and offline application. With this, some parts, including software graphics and fixed data, are saved in the phone, and every time they open it, there is no need to reload them, and only the program data is received from the server. This method has largely solved the speed problem of these types of programs.
With this description, it can be said that many web services can be done through these web applications. For example, in Team X&#۳۹;s transportation software, a customer web application is designed that the user can use to perform actions such as registering the service, tracking the service, canceling it, and other similar things. In this way, if the service is registered by phone, you can text the application link to the customer when accepting the driver. By clicking on the link, he can view the trip information and the driver&#۳۹;s location on the map. That is, while it is an application, it has the ability to send links and view online anywhere.
You may have an online teaching institute. in this case, the web application can help you and your students a lot.
