Top-10 Web Development Trends Businesses Should Know in 2022
Top-10 Web Development Trends Businesses Should Know in 2022
What is the future of web development??
It would be an understatement to say that #webdevelopmentservices simply matter to businesses these days. Business is pushing developers to create new solutions, which is why sometimes it’s not so easy to understand web development trends. But don't worry! Our PM-partners team is here to bring you up-to-date with the top web development trends in 2022 that can benefit your business. So buckle up as we take a short journey into the present and future of web development.
Serverless architecture
One of the biggest web development trends of 2022 is without a doubt #serverlessarchitecture. This method involves using someone else's servers that do not belong to the owner of the application or site. Simply put, the work is done using the cloud environment. The algorithm looks like this: a trigger event launches the serverless functionality, after which the ready-made algorithms and rules are sent from the serverless platform. And so with each new request. Such a system is especially suitable for those who want to optimize development time and resources.
The strengths of a serverless architecture include instant deployment of applications, cost savings through reduced server and database maintenance costs, easy scaling, and improved security. Indeed, in the case of a traditional cyberattack, a serverless architecture provides additional data protection. However, every coin has a downside, and serverless architecture is not without flaws. The weaknesses of the serverless architecture are the technical complexity of the process, the costly porting process, and the insufficiently fast execution of codes. Because of this, current serverless architecture solutions are poorly suited for processing large amounts of data. However, this way of creating and running applications and services has good prospects.
Application for online payments and transfers based on blockchain
You didn’t expect that in our trends we would ignore the #blockchain, did you? This amazing technology has been introduced into new and new areas in recent years, and web development is no exception. This is especially noticeable in any business related to finance. It is important for both FinTech and e-commerce to provide customers with a convenient, and most importantly, way to make online payments when working with blockchain.? After all, #ecommercewebsite development requires a special approach and understanding of the specifics.
It is this interaction that has reached a new level in web development in recent times. After all, to realize the full potential of your online payment and blockchain-based transfer business, you need a quality approach to web development.?

SSG - Static Site Generators?
Another trend is static site generators or simply SSG. It’s worth saying right away that SGS works differently than most sites and applications. To be precise, based on a certain template or components, static site generators create static HTML pages. While for SSG content, a separate source is generally used.
The advantages of static site generators are simplicity, better performance, and security and resilience to attacks. To put it bluntly, this technology is in high demand, because static site generators are implemented through frameworks. For example, this is how Gridsome and Gatsby work. By the way, the online service for interface development and prototyping Figma was based on Gatsby.
Headless CMS
Unlike traditional content management systems, which use a structure that combines front-end and back-end to manage content. Headless #cmsdevelopment goes the other way because it understands that such a monolithic approach is considered by many to be outdated for modern needs. Therefore, only a backend is provided to manage content through the headless CMS API. Thanks to this approach, one backend (server part) can be used to manage content for several sites or applications at once. This technology allows you to automate the simultaneous filling of content across all channels that are important to you. Simply put, the main role of Headless CMS is content storage and delivery. In this case, the type of content itself will already depend on the developer.
Headless CMS has many strengths. In particular, it allows you to centrally manage content in several channels at once, optimize resources, adjust content for each channel, and provide unlimited opportunities in terms of its structuring and delivery. At the same time, headless CMS has some disadvantages. This CMS requires a fairly high level of developer to work. In addition, headless CMS is like "heavy artillery", the use of which makes sense only on large projects with a set of different interfaces. Open source headless CMS like Ghost or Strapi are in high demand. For example, blogs Tinder, Mozilla, DuckDuck, and DuoLingo were created based on Ghost. While Strapi was used to create products for NASA, IBM, Societe Generale, and Walmart.
JAMstack
Development with JAMstack is an acronym. This name comes from the elements of which the JAMstack consists, namely: JavaScript, API, and Markup. Pretty creative, by the way. With the help of JAMstack, applications are created faster, hosting is less work, and project scaling is cheaper.
The content in the JAMstack is created through the Headless CMS mentioned earlier, but the code is created through the framework. They are linked together via a static site generator. The result is separation, the web application logic is mainly handled by the client, while complex technical functionality is implemented through third-party APIs. In addition, it allows you to reduce the load on the server, which increases its performance.

Single Page Application?
Single Page Applications (#SPA) load all the code at once, unlike classic multipage applications that regularly update and load pages. At the same time, SPA show the user only the desired fragment. In the case of switching to another page, the data is loaded by the browser from the already loaded code, which allows them to be displayed without refreshing the page.
This is a pretty old trick. In particular, Gmail, Facebook, and GitHub use it, however, the serious popularity of SPA began only in recent years with the growth of smartphone capabilities. The Single Page Application is often used to simplify blog and directory pages for the end user.
The strengths of SPA are speed, simplified development for different platforms, being user-friendly, and having conditional independence from the Internet. Of the minuses of SPA, one can note the difficulties with SEO, the complexity in development, and the increase in the load on the browser.
WebAssembly?
WebAssembly appeared back in 2015, positioning itself as a fundamentally new programming language. This is a low-level virtual machine that converts code written in many programming languages into binary format (just like in the movie The Matrix). The bottom line is that the code that goes through WebAssembly is much more compact than the code that goes through JavaScript, and besides, it loads much faster. In addition, such code is divided into modules, which are loaded as needed.
In 2022, WebAssembly has become a trend because it is extremely convenient when developing web applications. In particular, using WebAssembly, developers can write code in any programming language. This code can easily be converted into bytecode, which runs at high speed in the browser. In addition, WebAssembly can be used to work with virtual machines, gaming environments, neural networks, databases, and PWAs. However, WebAssembly also has some weaknesses. Firstly, this is the lower security of such a solution. In addition, it is difficult to call an advantage the fact that without the use of additional tools, such as, say, JavaScript, you will not be able to write a website in Wasm.
Flutter 2.0?
The updated Flutter 2.0 from Google was released in March 2021 but gained popularity only this year. The developers claim that using this open source framework, you can easily create applications for almost any platform, including the web. This allowed one code to be used for Android, iOS, and web browser development. This capability lays the foundation for rich interactive web applications. And given that Google continues to improve its brainchild, you can expect the next Flutter updates to be even more interesting.
AI and Chatbots
This duo can only seem intimidating to fans of sci-fi movies. Chatbots and AI do not plan to “destroy humanity”, but rather are created to take over routine work. Indeed, why keep a whole staff of managers answering, as a rule, the same questions, if the program can handle the same functions?
Of course, we all love to communicate with a live person, but chatbots and AI can no less successfully send the user to the page he is looking for or give advice on a simple issue. They also help to select products depending on search queries and customer preferences, personalize the site and analyze the user's mood. So further growth in the popularity of AI and Chatbots in web development is simply inevitable. After all, what is website development without innovation?
Container Applications
Another trend is container applications. Simply put, this is a software package that contains many useful things for web systems. As a rule, this is code, configuration, runtime environment, as well as system libraries. Containerized applications are lightweight, fast, and can run independently of other processes. In addition, containerized applications are beneficial because they reduce website development costs.
