Web development tools play an integral role in the development process. It’s almost impossible nowadays to build a web application without them. Thus, in this article,​ we will provide you with the best tools on the market. Before we start, here’s a brief Q&A.

##**How to choose which tools to use?**

To define tools for web applications development, consider these areas:

- Define the stage of the project you will work on: Back-end development, Front-end development or Deployment;
- See what a software developer’s day is like. Note the tools he uses most during the day;
- Have a look at the technology stack of the project. Technology stack should be selected by considering your project needs, not by considering the reviews and past experience.

##**How to evaluate these tools?**

So, you have a list of tools you want to use in your project or learn. How do you evaluate them?

**Study the pros and cons of various tools.** A team of professional web developers can do it with ease. Letting them decide will be a good decision. A correct set of tools will help you deliver a successful project.

**Determine the budget that you can spend on the right tooling.** The tools you’ve selected should be able to give you a good ROI.

Be sure to remember the following criteria:

- Cost-effectiveness;
- Ease of use;
- Scalability;
- Customization.

##**Web development tools categories**

A lot of these web development tools below are those we actually use at [Flatlogic](https://flatlogic.com/) on a daily basis. We haven’t included all of them, but most of them are here. We hope you’ll find a new tool that will help you in your workflow. The tools and resources below are listed in no particular order but split into groups for convenience.

###**Git Clients**

Repository management systems are a crucial development component. It helps you manage changes to source code over time. Git clients help avoid critical situations when somebody makes a mistake, allowing you to roll the code back to the previous versions.

###**Libraries**

Libraries are here to help you hit the ground running when building new websites. Libraries are file packages for styling and laying out your websites. Libraries are made up of ready-made forms, buttons, typography and other assets to make your app interactive.

###**Package managers/Task runners**

Package managers and task runners help automate the process of installing, upgrading, configuring, removing and automating different components of application and workflow.

###**Error tracking/monitoring systems**

Error monitoring helps software developers identify errors in real-time. It automatically detects bugs on your website or web application and gives you a clear view of how the user got to the error.

###**CSS preprocessors**

A CSS preprocessor is a language that, after it’s processed, gives you even more CSS features. A preprocessor also lets you write code that’s easier to read, maintain and share.

###**Front end assets**

Front end assets help you with the look of your application: fonts, icons, photos, and graphics.

###**Developer tools**

Developer tools let you track changes that you made in the code live, as well as find and understand issues.

###**Databases**

A database is the collection of information/data which is stored. It can be retrieved, updated and managed at any time. 

###**Web application frameworks**

Web Application Frameworks are designed to help you build web services, web resources and APIs.

###**API Tools**

Web API Tools help with monitoring, creating, combining and tracking the software.

###**Tools**

Looks like we’ve compiled a comprehensive list of web development tools and resources that can help you be more productive, stay informed, and become a better developer. Enjoy!
