The Evolution of Web Development

Web development has undergone significant changes over the last decade, particularly with the emergence of new technologies such as cloud computing, APIs, and decoupled architecture. The traditional model where websites relied on a single server to serve content to users was inefficient and vulnerable. This structural limitation led to slow performance and difficulties in scaling, impacting user experience negatively. The realization that decoupling the front end from the backend could address these challenges prompted a shift towards a more agile and responsive web development framework.
