Web design and development differences?

I will be starting to a propagandize for courses upon web pattern shortly though a propagandize additionally offers web developer classes?
What have been a small as well as large differences in between a two? Is there unequivocally any large disproportion or would it be something we could simply sense myself after a web pattern course?

Any info would be appreciated.
Function how exactly? Are there program programs out there similar to dreamweaver which do a little of a work for you?

One thought on “Web design and development differences?

  1. It all depends on the school. However usually a Web Design course focuses more on the HTML and CSS, making the site look pretty. On the other hand Web Developing courses usually focus on PHP or some other server side language, making the site function.

    Edit: function as in handle all the databases, user accounts, verifying people are logged in, handling comment system, etc. Pretty much all the stuff the website DOES and the other handles how it LOOKS

    Edit: Yeah there are programs like Dreamweaver that supposedly make web design easier, but I prefer to code my pages by hand.
