Web design, production, and development

Today, I received a question from the reader, not about specific technologies, but about some macro-level guidance. Or, I want to say that it is "career planning". I feel representative, I believe that many beginners have questions in this regard, so I would like to extend the answer here. This classmate Zhang's question is:

"I learned a little CSS at school. I just graduated from school soon. Although I learned design, I know that designers also need to understand it. although I have not finished reading. I have learned a lot about this. Thank you very much for your hard work.

Can I ask a teacher about the software that a designer can understand? I don't know anything when I step into the society. Please give me some instructions. Thank you !!!"

In fact, this problem is quite big, so let's take a brief look. With the development of Internet, the industry of website design and development has become more mature. From the perspective of division of labor, you can use the webpage "design", "production", and "development" to summarize this work.

-"Design" mainly refers to the use of photshop and various art-related software for page design. This mainly depends on the creative design capabilities of art.

-"Production" mainly refers to turning the previously designed page scheme into real pages and websites. This mainly requires mastering the HTML language and the increasingly popular CSS/Div, the main tool is Dreamweaver or expressionweb.

-"Development" mainly refers to the server sideProgramDevelopment, such as ASP, Asp.net, PHP, and other languages, as well as database systems such as SQL Server or MySQL. With the gradual development of the concept of Web 2.0, there are also a lot of development work on the front-end, mainly to be very proficient in Javascript, and now there are very few people in this regard.

For the artist, the main task is to complete the "design" link. Originally, this is the most creative, but now it is copied from the wind in China, so unless it is top-level, sometimes it is difficult to do it, but I think it will be worthwhile to eat in the future. No matter how fast the technology develops, the artistic creativity will not change, nor can it be procedural or automated. It must be produced by people.

For production, there is no need for a high theoretical basis and creativity, and the threshold is the lowest, but it is indeed a very hard job. It needs to be adjusted repeatedly to ensure that it can be correctly displayed in various browsers, in addition, if the actual situation changes, it is very likely that the work needs to be completely restarted. However, after CSS layout is used, the technical threshold for this work has been improved.

For development, if you want to develop, you still need to know a little about programming.

In fact, everyone should choose their own development path based on their own situation. If you are interested in this technology, you can find some relevant information on our website, I believe it will help you. After entering this website, you can see the course Directory, which includes flash, web page creation, and Photoshop. Each lesson takes 10 minutes and learning is easy. You can view the data in the order of directories.

You can decide which software you want to learn based on your own situation. You can also decide based on market requirements to see what the recruitment website needs most, what do you learn, so that you have more options.
