What is the difference between a web designer and a web developer?
In the early days of the
web, the answer to this question was simple. Designers would design and
developers would write the code. These days, this question requires a little
more nuance. You'll be hard-pressed to find a web designer who doesn't know at
least a little HTML and CSS, and look no further than front-end. A web
developer who can create storyboards. However, if you look closely at the
general concepts of web design and web development, the distinction becomes a
little more clear. Let's take a look at these two concepts and the role they
play in building practical websites and apps that we're all familiar with
What is web design?

including color schemes, layout, information flow, and all other visual aspects

Web design
is all about what users actually see on their computer screens and mobile
devices, and the mechanisms beneath the surface that make everything work.
Bring your digital experiences to life by using color, imagery, typography, and
layout.
However,
many web designers are also familiar with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. It's
useful to be able to create a living mockup of your web app when pitching ideas
to your team or improving your app's UI/UX. Web designers also often use
template services such as WordPress and Joomla!, which allow him to create
websites using themes and widgets without him having to write a single line of
code.
