Web application development from 4Limes
All you need to know about web applications

WHAT ARE WEB APPS
Web apps are an indispensable marketing tool used by a growing number of companies. They solve a huge number of complex tasks, help to automate your business, and make life easier for your employees. 

A Web application is a client-server application that resides on a remote server. But at the same time, the user interface of the service is displayed in a browser.
This means that the user does not need to install any additional software as the application runs through the browser.

MAIN ADVANTAGES OF THE WEB APPLICATION
AVAILABLE ON ANY DEVICE
Web app can be used on any gadget, as long as you have internet access.
BUDGET SAVING
Because web-applications work on all platforms, there is no need to develop separate clients for Android, iOS and Windows. It's also easier and cheaper to install, maintain and upgrade.
NETWORK SECURITY
The web-based system has a single, centralized point of entry. This makes it easier to configure data security and protect sensitive information from loss. Consider the fact that all user data resides on a cloud server, which helps preserve data even if the hard drive is damaged.
SCALABILITY
A web application only processes information using hardware resources. Therefore, when the load on the system increases, there is no need to increase the capacity of client seats.

BUILDING WEB APPLICATIONS FROM 4LIMES
To develop an effective web application, we get to know the client's business and their needs. There are cases where you don't need to develop a web application but sometimes they are indispensable. The main purpose of web services is to solve non-standard business problems. For example, some kind of complex reservation system, a calculator, or data accounting for which the standard solutions of popular applications do not fit.

By creating applications for business, we focus not only on functionality, but also on simplicity and usability of design. This helps users quickly navigate the dashboard and become more productive.

WEB APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT: KEY STEPS
Web service with a wide range of functions:
Business needs analysis
Before creating a web application we will analyze your company's needs and choose the system which will most effectively solve the required tasks.

Project estimate and preliminary CP
Our specialists estimate preliminary development cost and the customer receives a quote.
Prototyping
We create a prototype of the application, based on the needs of the customer. We form an interface, in which the user will be able to quickly navigate and solve their problems. Your customers will be able to evaluate the functionality of a future application without the software part.
Design
Upon approval of a prototype, we create a design with the features of the company and its employees in mind, so that the interface can be intuitively understood by all employees.
BACKLOG AND CONCLUSION OF A DEVELOPMENT CONTRACT
Our experts create the backlog for the entire project together with the client. After backlog approval a contract is concluded with a client.
SPRINT PLANNING
We prioritize tasks and set deadlines.
PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION
We develop the web-application, taking into account analysis, preliminary testing and customer requirements.
PRE-PROJECT DEMONSTRATION
We show intermediate results to the customer. We analyse the risks and problems, complete the sprint, and optimise the further work process.
OPTIMIZE THE RESULT OF OUR WORK
Based on the corrections made after the preliminary demonstration to the customer.
