PWA – Progressive Web Apps PWA or Progressive Web Application is meant to work on any platform that uses a standards-compliant browser, including desktop and mobile devices. In that sense, we can say PWA is a hybrid of regular web applications and mobile applications. 2. AI – Artificial Intelligence Development In this digital age, AI has permeated many sectors, and web development is no different. The year 2022 will keep seeing this trend of using AI in website development. AI, as the name suggests, mimics human behavior and can perform cognitive functions such as learning, data collection, and analysis. 3. Single Page Apps and Single Page WebsitesSometime back, every action of the user, like clicking on a button, would lead to an additional web page downloaded from the server. That required creating different web pages for every action.To simplify that complexity, single-page apps and single-page websites are becoming a norm these days. Such single-page websites are great for upcoming start-ups, as they are generally short on time, money, and sometimes sufficient content. 4. Motion Design - UIMotion design is one of the most impactful web development trends that is forecasted to grow in 2022. The purpose of using it in web development is to enhance digital solutions' usability and grab the user's attention by amazing them.Motion design can be defined as the practice of designing with animations.  It helps in making the User Interface (UI) expressive and easy to use.5. WebAssemblyA large number of developers are turning to WebAssembly – a new approach with brilliant results in performance. In this sense, we can say that WebAssembly is also the future of web development.WebAssembly or Wasm provides a new way of making applications available online. Previously, the only option was with the use of JavaScript. But JavaScript being slow, low performance in terms of speed was an issue in some cases. This is why WebAssembly is introduced. With this technology, you can compile code written in any programming language to bytecode and run them in the browser. This helps to manage cross-platform scripting while also addressing the issues related to speed and performance.6. Mobile-First ApproachThe Mobile-First approach means giving priority to creating a responsive app or website for a mobile-first, that is, prototyping the smallest screen (mobile) first and then working your way up to the larger screens (desktop and tablet). Mobile-first is equivalent to content first. With this approach, you give your users the content they need because it forces UX designers to strip unnecessary elements away and focus only on the essential.7. Serverless Architecture Serverless application development is an emerging trend, and it’s gaining immense popularity.It is a software design pattern where web sites/applications are hosted by a third-party service, eliminating the need for server software and hardware management by the developer.With a serverless architecture, developers focus remains on the individual functions in application code. Third-party services are used to manage the physical hardware, virtual machine operating system, and web server software management.8. AMP – Accelerated Mobile PagesAMP is an open-source HTML framework, which is developed by the AMP Open Source Project. Originally created by Google, AMP is optimized for enhanced mobile web browsing experience and is thus intended to help webpages load faster. AMP web pages are created through plugins.AMP plugins are always chosen when creating an outstanding user interface without using complex coding.9. RAIL ModelThe RAIL as a concept first appeared in 2015 but started gaining popularity from 2019 onwards. It is a web performance model that provides an accurate and comprehensive system to evaluate the user experience so that developer can make meaningful improvements. The RAIL stands for ‘Response, Animation, Idle, and Load.’ The RAIL model categorizes and evaluates various user interactions under the four domains - Response, Animation, Idle, and Load. 10. MEAN StackMEAN Stack is a collection of frameworks in JavaScript that includes MongoDB, Express.js, Angular.js, and Node.js, which developers use to build dynamic applications. 11. IoT – Internet of ThingsThe network of connected devices needs web servers. The data from sensors gets stored in the cloud. Messaging protocols makes communication between devices easier. And it’s the user interface that enables other users to interact with connected devices.Besides, many IoT devices can display website content. These include UIs on TVs, many smart appliances, and monitors. Some of them can also search the web through browsers – for example, Amazon’s Echo and its virtual assistant Alexa. 12. Voice Search and NavigationIf you want your website to be searched easily, you need to optimize it for voice search. As mobile use continues to grow, many users are getting comfortable speaking to their devices rather than typing their queries. This is where the need for a voice search feature increases for a web developer.On the other hand, Google, Amazon, and Apple have started offering a satisfying voice search experience.
