According to TechRepublic, web development is one of the 10 hottest tech skills in 2019. Employment of web developers is projected to grow 15 percent from 2016 to 2026, much faster than the average for all occupations. This is the right time to enhance your skills and start your web developer career. In this article, we will discuss some of the Web Development Projects that will help you build applications on your own in the following sequence:
Career in Web Development
A web developer is a programmer who specializes in the development of World Wide Web applications using a client-server model. They are also responsible for designing, coding and modifying websites, from layout to function and according to a client’s specifications.
You can find professionals trained in web development working as computer programmers, software engineers, and even web-focused graphic designers. Some of the Key job roles are:
- Web Developer – Web developers use programming and technology skills to construct the appearance and user experience of a site. The average salary is around Rs. 480,694.
- Computer Programmer – Computer programmers develop and adjust the proper function of software by writing and testing code. The average salary range is between Rs 232k to Rs 1m.
- Web Designer – Web designers work on the front-end of a site and are concerned with outward appearance and user experience. The average salary for a Web Designer in India is Rs 281,410.
- Graphic Web Designer – A graphic designer works to enhance the user experience or application by creating graphics and other visual media. The average salary ranges from Rs 118k to Rs 619k.
Now that you know about career growth, let’s have a look at some of the Web Development Projects that will help you understand the process of web designing better and also build your own projects. Learn and explore web design and development through this Web Development Course with real time projects.
Web Development Projects
The Web Development Projects are divided into three levels- Basic, Intermediate, and Advance. We will discuss the different levels of projects and how the code works. This will help you understand the process of web development better and provide you the idea to build your own websites using different scripting languages. So, let’s begin with the basic level Project.

Responsive Layout
One major role of a front end developer is to understand the responsive design principles and how to implement them on the coding side.
In this project, we will create a basic layout of a single responsive page and how it works in web development for building multi-purpose websites. The first step is to create the HTML Layout and design the head part of the web page.

In this web development project, we have created a basic responsive layout of a web page that consists of different course links to the edureka website.
Output:
Now, this was all about creating a basic responsive layout page. In the next web development project, we will build a dynamic webpage with the help of responsive design.
Dynamic Webpage
In this example, we will create a dynamic webpage showing environment awareness and adding different sections of the campaign in a single layout page.
The first step is to create the HTML layout with different layers or divisions in a single layout page.

Once you have created the HTML layout, it’s time to style the webpage and make it look more interesting with the help of CSS.

Now, we will move on to the final level of our web development projects and create an interesting quiz game with the help of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Quiz Game
In this project, we will create a Quiz game with multiple choice answers and a final score based on the number of correct answers.
To set up the structure of our JavaScript quiz, we’ll need to start with the following HTML code:
quiz.html
<html>
<head>
<title>Quiz Game</title>
</head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="quiz.css">
<h1>Do You Know?</h1>
<div class="quiz-container">
<div id="quiz"></div>
</div>
<button id="previous">Previous Question</button>
<button id="next">Next Question</button>
<button id="submit">Submit Quiz</button>
<div id="results"></div>
<script type="text/javascript", src='quiz.js'></script>
</html>Next, we’ll need a way to build a quiz, show results, and put it all together. We can start by laying out our functions with the help of JavaScript.
quiz.js
(function() {
const myQuestions = [
{
question: "Which sea creature has three hearts? ",
answers: {
a: "Octopus",
b: "Blue Whale",
c: "Sea Turtle"
},
correctAnswer: "a"
},
{
question: "What is the Italian word for pie?",
answers: {
a: "Donut",
b: "Pie cake",
c: "Pizza"
},
correctAnswer: "c"
},
{
question: "Which is the only mammal that can not jump?",
answers: {
a: "Snake",
b: "Elephant",
c: "Kangaroo",
},
correctAnswer: "b"
}
];
function buildQuiz() {
// we'll need a place to store the HTML output
const output = [];
// for each question...
myQuestions.forEach((currentQuestion, questionNumber) => {
// we'll want to store the list of answer choices
const answers = [];
// and for each available answer...
for (letter in currentQuestion.answers) {
// ...add an HTML radio button
answers.push(
`<label id="${questionNumber}${letter}" href="#">
<input type="radio" name="question${questionNumber}" value="${letter}"} id="${questionNumber}${letter}"">
${letter} :
${currentQuestion.answers[letter]}
</label>`
);
}
// add this question and its answers to the output
output.push(
`<div class="slide">
<div class="question"> ${currentQuestion.question} </div>
<div class="answers"> ${answers.join("")} </div>
</div>`
);
});
// finally combine our output list into one string of HTML and put it on the page
quizContainer.innerHTML = output.join("");
}
function showResults() {
// gather answer containers from our quiz
const answerContainers = quizContainer.querySelectorAll(".answers");
// keep track of user's answers
let numCorrect = 0;
// for each question...
myQuestions.forEach((currentQuestion, questionNumber) => {
// find selected answer
const answerContainer = answerContainers[questionNumber];
const selector = `label input[name=question${questionNumber}]:checked`;
const userAnswer = (answerContainer.querySelector(selector) || {}).value;
const answerID = (answerContainer.querySelector(selector) || {}).id;
const selector1 = `label[id="${answerID}"]`; //Select user's answer
var answerElem = answerContainer.querySelector(selector1);
const selector2 = `label[id="${questionNumber}${currentQuestion.correctAnswer}"]`;
var answerElem1 = answerContainer.querySelector(selector2);
// if answer is correct
if (userAnswer === currentQuestion.correctAnswer) {
// add to the number of correct answers
numCorrect++;
// color the answers green
//console.log(answerElem)
answerElem.style.background = "#70F85A";
answerElem.style.fontWeight = "900";
} else {
// if answer is wrong or blank
// color the answers red
answerElem1.style.color="#70F85A";
answerElem.style.background="#FD2929";
answerElem1.style.fontWeight = "900";
//console.log(answerContainers)
}
});
// show number of correct answers out of total
resultsContainer.innerHTML = `${numCorrect} out of ${myQuestions.length}`;
}
function showSlide(n) {
slides[currentSlide].classList.remove("active-slide");
slides[n].classList.add("active-slide");
currentSlide = n;
if (currentSlide === 0) {
previousButton.style.display = "none";
} else {
previousButton.style.display = "inline-block";
}
if (currentSlide === slides.length - 1) {
nextButton.style.display = "none";
submitButton.style.display = "inline-block";
} else {
nextButton.style.display = "inline-block";
submitButton.style.display = "none";
}
}
function showNextSlide() {
showSlide(currentSlide + 1);
}
function showPreviousSlide() {
showSlide(currentSlide - 1);
}
const quizContainer = document.getElementById("quiz");
const resultsContainer = document.getElementById("results");
const submitButton = document.getElementById("submit");
// display quiz right away
buildQuiz();
const previousButton = document.getElementById("previous");
const nextButton = document.getElementById("next");
const slides = document.querySelectorAll(".slide");
let currentSlide = 0;
showSlide(0);
// on submit, show results
submitButton.addEventListener("click", showResults);
previousButton.addEventListener("click", showPreviousSlide);
nextButton.addEventListener("click", showNextSlide);
})();
Finally, we can use CSS to add different styles to this game.
