What are your thoughts about material design, progressive web app and Internet of Things (IoT)?

Material Design:
The idea of layering elements in an interface isn’t a new concept. However, Material Design takes it a step further combining a tactile experience with a bold and vibrant aesthetic. It is a conceptual design philosophy that outlines how apps should look and work on mobile devices. It breaks down everything such as animation, style, layout, and gives guidance on patterns, components, and usability.

Progressive web app:
PWA is a type of application software, delivered through the web, built using common web technologies including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It is intended to work on any platform that uses a standards-compliant browser. Functionality includes working offline, push notifications, and device hardware access, enabling creating user experiences similar to native applications on desktop and mobile devices. Since progressive web apps are a type of webpage or website known as a web application, there is no requirement for developers or users to install the web apps via digital distribution systems like Apple App Store or Google Play.

IoT:
The Internet of Things is the concept of connecting any device to the Internet and to other connected devices. The IoT is a giant network of connected things and people all of which collect and share data about the way they are used and about the environment around them.
Devices and objects with built in sensors are connected to an Internet of Things platform, which integrates data from different devices and applies analytics to share the most valuable information with applications built to address specific needs.


What do you think will be the future of web design and development technology?

The web development industry is constantly evolving. While we may not be able to tell the day-to-day changes while it’s happening, it’s easy for us to look back to the past few months/years and see that a lot of things we do now are much different than what we’ve been doing before. The future of web design & development is progressing at a tremendous rate. Website has ingrained so much in daily lives and it’s not surprising no business runs without a website. It is emerging right now with an excellent growth rate.
