Static Web App development

A static website is a common set of several HTML pages that are connected with each other using hyperlinks. From the very beginning of the Internet, all websites were static. Various users visited these standard documents in order to obtain information.

Static and dynamic web development

Static websites contain pages with fixed content. Technically, this is a set of HTML files that look the same for each website visitor. Unlike the development of dynamic websites, the static web page development does not require databases or server programming.static web apps

A static website setup is simple: files are uploaded to an ordinary web server or to some kind of storage. The two main advantages of static websites are security and speed. There is no database, so there is nothing to steal, and there is no need to programmatically generate a page for each request, which speeds up the work.

In order to simplify static web development, many open source tools have been created. For example, Jekyll, Hugo, Hexo, etc. The website content preparation is carried out by editing something like markup files, or through some kind of content management API. After the data is ready for publication, the generator inserts it in the templates and creates a lot of HTML files that are ready for publication.static web applications

Static web apps with passive web pages

Web pages of static websites are created with HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). CSS is used to design and format various web page elements, which significantly reduces the size of web pages.static web development

Creating web pages of static websites is a laborious process. Static websites with passive web pages are created manually, using any HTML editor in the computer file system, and then uploaded to the web resource. The user creates new pages or edits the existing ones in the PC editor, then uploads it all again to the web resource.

In general, static websites with passive web pages are used to create small and medium-sized websites with a constant structure and appearance of pages (although each page can have its own design template), which can be placed on any hosting, including free websites that do not support scripts.

Static web applications with interactive web pages

In order to make static web pages interactive and dynamic, you can insert scripts in the JavaScript and VBScript languages into the web page. These scripts can be triggered either by user actions or automatically during the web page loading.

In addition, DHTML (dynamic HTML) elements can be inserted into an HTML document. DHTML is a way of creating interactive websites. DHTML is built on the JavaScript programming language, CSS and DOM (Document Object Model).

You can insert SWF files into an HTML document. Flash provides interactivity through interactive vector animation for the web. Flash is created using ActionScript.
